Why should science learn from religion [0] or religion learn from science? They serve two different purposes.
"Science" (ultimately the scientific method) concerns itself with empiricism, and exploration of outcomes without regard to their inherent meanings and purposes. This is GOOD.
Religion / Ideology (whether with a deity or not) is teleological and imparts purpose and meaning to empirical observations as well as things that are beyond empiricism. This is also GOOD.
Both should probably work together. But they should probably remain separate concepts.
[0] "Religion" in my mind includes all teleological ideologies; things like 'capitalism', 'Marxism', 'Nazism', 'Baathism', 'emacism', etc.
