Personally, I find the idea of simultaneous support for both religion and science wholly incompatible. Here's my thought process:
- Scientists support the [url=http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/overview_scientific_method2.gif]scientific method[/url].
- Faith-based religion conflicts with the scientific method, as religion skips/ignores steps in the scientific method.
- One cannot support the scientific method while simultaneously supporting faith-based religion.
One cannot truly support both science and religion; you're compromising your support in one or the other.
Thoughts? Explain your position.

I'm an atheist, but I support other people's views be it religious or not, nothing annoys me more then religious people or people who don't have religious views like atheist that won't let you believe what you want and have to argue, I enjoy when I hear people say that science is a way of explaining how god works, as it doesn't hurt anyone's beliefs.
