once you realize this, all of the "problems" involving science and religion disappear. problems only appear when, mistakenly, someone tries to comment on science from the point of view of religion, or someone tries to comment on religion from the point of view of science. this represents instant failure of an ability to understand the subject matter you are concerning yourself with.
But science and religion are intertwined. If a religious belief is that the earth is six or seven thousand years old, and science seems to refute that, then the person with that religious belief certainly isn't "mistakenly" commenting on science from the point of view of religion. He may or may not be correct, but certainly he can't be expected to not comment on science.
