I'm often asked if I think science and religion are compatible. My reply is always the same: if, when a disagreement arises between the scientific consensus and the scriptures on an issue that can be tested in the natural world, and you choose the fundamentalist scriptural interpretation, then no, they are not compatible. If however, when science refutes a scriptural, scientifically-testable claim, and you therefore reject the religious position, then yes, they are. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAQL9gRmq34
