1. Does religoion really compliment science?

2. Could their deaths could be considered meaningless? If the Christianity is indeed real, then great, they died for a noble cause, but if its not, it seems to me that they would indeed have died meaninglessly. To answer:

1 - Yes, they do. To give an example, did you know that the science of mathematics points to a Creator? Almost all mathematicians are religious, because they delve deep into math, and the order and simplicity of it are so great that they believe it could not have been brought about by random chance.

2 - Their deaths are not meaningless, whether you believe in Christianity or not. Their lives are precious, no matter the religion behind them. No person should have the right to take another life. Most every person agrees on that much, at least(discounting the great tyrants, as well as the ones attempting to inspire terror in this present day and age). 1. Thats a really good point actually, but it just implies that there is some kind of creator, it dosen't give any evidenve towards any religion.

2. This is exactly why their deaths are meaningless, their lives were precious yet were lost for no reason.
