And even though it seems strange to me, I guess there's no reason why someone can't flip back and forth between the two approaches. Religious people seem to be good at compartmentalising. I guess my point is that in this multi-methodological study into the universe, I don't think religion is a valid method. So in that sense, I guess it's not really in <em>conflict </em>with science, it doesn't even belong in the same toolkit. You’re right.

Consider them to be two approaches in a multi-methodological approach to sense-making that we engage in to make sense of our existence. :) I think what you’ve shown here is that religion and science are not the same, not that they are incompatible.
