Information for Western World Religions, Other Religions, and All Sciences
In the Western world, in 1401, Nicholas of Cusa (1401-1464) his first book (On 
Learned Ignorance) for the Roman Church. In Book II, Ch. 11 Cusa opened a new theology when he said that the earth is not the center of the universe and the sphere of fixed stars do not form the circumference of the universe. With these new words, Cusa started the field of modern theologies.
The famous astronomer, Johannes Kepler (1571-1630), became aware of Cusa’s works and was also interested in Cusa’s use of curved and straight lines to distinguish God and man. Kepler mentions this interest in Chapter II of his book, "Mysterium Cosmographicum" (The Secret of the Universe). Thus, neither Copernicus (1473-1543) nor Galileo (1564-1642) opened the field of modern science, as today’s scientists say. I say that the ‘me generation’ in the USA is separating the modern sciences from the modern theologies. Yet, Cusa, Kepler, Copernicus, Galileo and many other modern scientists and modern theologians have never separated their scientific work and their faiths.
The cause of the separation between modern theology and modern science will be found in those religions that cast scriptures into concrete and in those sciences that reject God. However, since modern theologies are telling us that God and the universe have no end, all sciences and all theologies can be improved forever. However, this separation has a deeper and common cause. This deeper cause is (1) the scientific belief that man is just another animal and (2) the religious belief that man is just another animal who is not divine or is not a ‘little creator’ of God. Yet, Jesus Christ teaches the scriptural improvements made already by Jews and the new improvements that will be made in the future by Christians. Further, Mohammed was rightly a follower of these teachings of Jesus.
All theological and scientific productions by man are significant thoughts of man. These thoughts should never be lost. Recording man’s thoughts are material for scriptures and libraries. Burning books are thus as evil as burning people at the stake or burning people with an electric chair. Every human can and must produce new knowledge. And every person must listen to what others are saying or writing. Thus, brotherly love, not riches, is the true nature of divine man.
It seems to be the right time to change the National Academy of Science in Washington to the National Academy of Theology and Science.
