Miley Cyrus and Twitter just can't seem to get along.

The 19-year-old got heat earlier this week after tweeting a photo that contained this quote from physicist Lawrence Krauss: "You are all stardust. You couldn't be here if stars hadn't exploded, because the elements (carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, all the things that matter for evolution) weren't created at the beginning of time. They were created in stars. So forget Jesus. Stars died so you can live."

Cyrus' Christian followers didn't take to kindly to the tweet and replied with their two cents, including telling the young starlet to go to hell.

What did she have to say to that?

Yesterday, Miley tweeted, "How can people take the love out of science and bring hate into religion so easily?" 

She then followed that up with a quote from another physicist: "It makes me sad to think the world is this way. Like Einstein says 'Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind.'"
