Yep. Religion and science. They just don't mix!!! :)

The fact that some people who do science also hold to a religious belief does not equate in any way to support of the claim that science and religion (or more properly reason and faith/revelation) are epistemologically compatible, nor does it equate to support for the claim that science is an outgrowth of/owes something to a vague and nebulous definition of religion.

Well it sure doesn't hurt.
So do you believe that faith and reason are incompatible or contradictory?

It's nothing to do with whether it hurts or not, that is an irrelevance.
Likewise, any beliefs I may or may not have are irrelevant.
What can be demonstrated is a different matter.
