The are 2 process to acquire knowledge, the ascending process and descending process. Scientist are using the ascending process, trying to find by experimental research the ultimate cause of creation. And religion accept the descending process, by getting knowledge beginning from the Supreme Lord through the scriptures and spiritual master, handing down the knowledge from disciple secession.
The evidence of material science is the limited study of the unfathomable creation of the supreme. And the evidence of religion is the scriptures left by God. But through science if someone has enough intelligence, can come with the conclusion that God is the origin and the creator of everything.

I'm interpreting your question to mean: Does a religion that is the truth have conflicts with science?
I would think not. A belief system that conflicts with scientific evidence to the point where one or the other must be wrong (eg, Ussher's Young Earth v. Deep Time) means that someone, somewhere is lying. Empirical evidence has no agenda. The fossils are there and they are ancient, proven by a test that also has no agenda. Belief systems use words written by people as evidence, which can neither be tested empirically nor duplicated. Therefore, when a belief system is proven wrong by empirical evidence, it cannot be the truth.

The controversy is with the evidence. Religion and science disagree over the interpretation of some of it.

The religious mind has no problem with science for both are full of curiosity and want to know the truth. Many religions have organized their truth, usually very long ago, and they are not open or curious. It is these religions which have a problem with science, fearing being open to what is new may damage what they hold dear that is old.

true religion, like science, is about always asking questions and re-evaluating the previous answers. Religion gets stagnant and atrophies when it becomes stuck on a set of "answers" that no longer hold up.
