The religious method of understanding the world is based on supernatural phenomenons that (with unknown certainty) occurred at some point in history. Most observations do not include research, a hypothesis, or experimental data. The Scientific Method is a logical and rational order of steps by which scientists come to conclusions about the world around them. The Scientific Method helps to organize thoughts and procedures so that scientists can be confident in the answers they find. Scientists use observations, hypotheses, and deductions to make these conclusions, just like you will use the Scientific Method in your science fair project. You will think through the various possibilities using the Scientific Method to eventually come to an answer to your original question. The steps of the Scientific Method are: Observation/Research, Hypothesis, Prediction, Experimentation, and Conclusion. The religious method includes observations, predictions, and perhaps conclusions that a higher being, for instance, made - so you're told what to think, rather than doing the reasoning yourself.
