    I think the difference is that scientific theory exists even when nobody believes or is even aware of it, while religious faith is dependent on people believing it.

    If humanity lost all knowledge, but didn’t go extinct, we’d eventually reconstruct chemistry, but the doctrine of the trinity would be lost forever.

      On earth, the trinity would still exist because it’s based on nature. Most religions have it in their doctrine in some form.
