Why Theologist blames Science?
Man breaks legal & divine laws to escape from consequences of his wrong doing & to avoid punishment e.g. law or hell, he wants forgiver for his wrong deeds so he created pilgrimages, Ganga river & other holy places where God excuses their sins. It is needed 1st to wash our mind from unnatural thoughts passions & secure our life with satisfaction.
Theist has mentality that if any accident occurs, or any one dies during accident surgery, murdered unnaturally, or naturally will say it was pretext, Nimitta, olr destined. E.g. An ignorant man & scientist went to 9000 feet high on mountain, keeps potato to boil on fire, potato does not get soft, Ignorant man imagines God does not allow potato to boil.

Bomb blast in local train of Bombay, floods on 26th July 2007, terrorist attack on Hotel Taj & Nariman House earthquakes in Kutch.
