10. They do actually "coexist" but do they compliment each other?

And the answer from over 50 centuries of history of both religion and science and math is that they certainly do NOT compliment each other.

There are thousands of times in the last 5-6 thousand years of human history where one works to negate or immobilize the other.

I'm on the side of science, and let religious folks alone just as long as they keep their stuff out of my government and out of my science. But I find very few religious folks who want to stop meddling in science. They always think that they have more to add, but all they add is bullpucky and nonsense.
