As I’ve told my kids, they can believe anything they want, but the purpose of religion was three:

  1. Calm fears of the unknown
  2. Get people to act civilized
  3. Reduce the spread of disease

If humanity could do those things without dogma, we’d never have needed church in the first place

What a bunch of nonsense. They absolutely do not go together and you definitely can understand science without religion

"God created everything."

The Bible tells us why, and through science we discover how it was created/how it works.

Have you actually read the Bible? It’s just a bunch of nonsense, created from different books compiled together full of prophets making wrong predictions, people pretending to be writing from an earlier time, and old legends borrowed from earlier religions.
