I appreciate the nuance here. As a person of faith one of the things I love most about both science and religion is the sheer amount of mystery there is in all of it. If there were no mystery in either, science would be dead and faith would be unnecessary. Yet science and religion pretend to be opposed. Throughout history the greatest clashes between faith and science have occurred when scientific understanding threatens the faith-based assumptions of the age. Imagine Abraham arguing with God over his request to sacrifice Isaac. Instead, he reasoned that God would find another way. Sometimes our understanding of religion limits our thinking with regard to not just science, but our faith as well.
