I asked, several times, in various forums, for an explanation of the fact that there are many scientists who are religious. One answer is that our milieu affects some more than others. So, some people, no matter how rational they may be in their field, cannot escape the prison they were thrown into at some point of their lives. Another answer lies in the meaning of the word "scientist".
Be it as it may, what we cannot infer from the fact that there are religious scientists is that religion and science are compatible. The mere fact that the intersection of the two sets is nonempty does not imply much.
Too many words for a simple idea, best explained
