If you take some statements from the Bible literally, it contradicts modern science. Is it the same with other important religious texts such as the Qur'an?

I've no doubt of it. "Modern Science" changes every year. The Bible, the Koran and other religious texts do not.

They are bound to run into some conflicts. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
