Sat Sri Akal,

I don't think Sikhi teaches anything that contradicts science at all. Science and Sikhi are two different things, with science being a subset of our dharma. Remember, science is just something that tries to explain our world, it does a pretty good job of it but it is continuously being revised as more and more is learned.

On the other hand, Sikhi is never revised. Guru Nanak Dev Ji got a hukum from Waheguru to spread the truth, and that is what Sikhi is all about.

If you are still confused, maybe you can give a little more detail about what you find contradictory. Please write back if you want to.

Gur Fateh,
HSD
