I don't think religion and science can work together. For one thing that throws scientific method out the window, as believing in a supernatural origin of creation means you operate your experiments with a foregone conclusion. I doubt a Christian or Muslim scientist would work to Falsify god, Falsification being an important part of methodology

Pretty well. Its like our parasitic conjoined twin that uses our blood supply but it is composed only of arms and legs and a backbone without any neural tissue, growing off our back and slowing us down. We can't just cut it off as we risk our lives in the process; we have to wait for medicine to develop a safe technique to separate us :wink:
