Science and religion conflict because they're both seen as a source of truth. Religion claims to be the source of [absolute] truth. Science seems to be most humble about it, always self-doubting, always open to better explanations. If both scientists and religious leaders could accept the 'all I know is that I know nothing' idea, I suspect there'd be much fewer issues between them. Religion is much more than [absolute] truth. It also claims [absolute] morality. Absolute rules. And that means their leaders, their belief and their rules are untouchable and will always be.
