Yes, you are probably_wrong :)
Of course debates can go on forever, but I think that religion and science are indeed opposed, it just happens that some individuals can do excellent science while keeping religion safely confined to a corner of their brains (and the other way round, maybe).
Religion is about faith, science is- well, not.
Religion starts with believing in something without adequate proof (by definition, or it would be science). Science looks for the proof of everything.
Religion searches for unexplainable things, to be used as a proof of an immutable knowledge; science searches for unxplainable things to prove that the existing knowledge is wrong, and by modifying it, make them more explainable.
