what? no. religion is not certain which is evidenced by the numerous sects of christianity with their own interpretations of the same book.
while science might not have a definitive answer for everything, they distinguish from fact and theory.

Ask any religious person if their religion teaches truth or lie, then ask them if that truth is the absolute truth. We'll wait.
Those that want certainty have to look to religion, or to pseudoscience. And they will certainly be wrong.
The actual fact is, we humans really don’t know much about the universe and indeed there may be truths and knowledge that we’ll never know the answer to. Like… why the fuck are we here? Where did all this stuff come from. Sure we have theories and have logical conclusions but at the end of the day… we are tiny and the universe is mind bogglingly huge. It is peak human arrogance to think we truly know anything at all.
It’s very humbling to realise how little we actually know. What we do know… we know. We are masters of electro-magnetism, chemistry, etc… but when it comes to the big questions it’s all a shot in the dark.
Religion allows for certainty. Science does not. Faith versus reason.
