    I’m not even remotely religious, but I can think of multiple ways to reconcile science and religion.

    For example, if God created the universe and all of its physical rules, and He gave us reason, what could be more religious than trying to fully explore His creation?

    Or from a slightly different angle, so much of the fundamental levels of physics seem to operate based on probabilities, who’s to say an omniscient being couldn’t poke a probability here and there, fully knowing what the cascading effect will be?

      That is, in fact, pretty much the world view that gave us the scientific method in the first place, and from which sprang most of scientific progress until the early 20th century.
