What conflicts developed in societies with the birth of modern science?

Science advances because of man's need for knowledge. As knowledge increases, old values and beliefs may be questioned. For example, when physics discovered that thunder and lightning were caused by electrical phenomena, then the old belief that it was caused by supernatural forces had to be abandoned. People's attachment to the suparnatural has an emotional basis that is a framework for their belief systems. The result is that a conflict between new knowledge and old beliefs inecitable. It can be argued that scientific development advances faster than social systems and belief systems. It is inevitable that conflicts of this kind happen. Another example is modern birth control which became possible because of research in medicine and biochemistry. Social norms and values may be in conflict with the possibilities that science offers for people to change their lives, and this causes conflicts on a personal level and even at national levels.
