Just think where Science would be if we used 2000 year old text books in our science classes.
Science is a "Fact Based" discipline which feeds the brain/mind
Religion is a "Belief Based" discipline which feeds the heart/soul

People want religion on the same footing as science because they know that science makes sense and religion doesn't. It's the same reason theists like to try to claim atheism is a religion. They hope to justify their unjustifiable position by bringing everyone down to their level.

True science seems to always support the biblical descriptions and accounts. The important words there are "True Science" It seems that when science does not have imperical proof, they tend to rely on time. While there is no scientific evidence we evolved from apes, by claiming it occurred over millions of years, people find that believeable, even though there is NO concrete evidence to support the claim.

Because science is in essence the disproving of religion. With science, religion doesn't add up and vice versa.
Also, many people see that parts of both are logical. "Thou shalt not kill" seems pretty logical, as does "Energy can neither be created nor destroyed." And so they are trying to find an even median, because both seem to be correct.

It is the function of science to explain the world around us. Part of that world around us is religion. If you believe in God, then science is trying to explain how God did it. If you do not believe in God, then science is trying to explain how we got where we are and how it happened. In either case, science and religion are intertwined.

Religion helps to explain our world. Science helps to explain our world. You can understand via reason or by faith. The two were meant to compliment one another.

When religion tries to be scientific it's just psuedo-science.

I'd be okay, I aced flat-earth geography and earth-centric astronomy in high school. It was just the fire starting I had trouble with.

we need both science and religion to balance out the world
in the end, the balance would be disturbed and either one will be right
