Wow a really interesting topic.
I agree with the compatibility and complementarity of science and religion.
I'll make this point: I think when Dawkins claims religion is the source for conflict and oppression, he misses the point at least about Christianity. Christianity teaches that we live in a broken world where perfection is
the goal, not an instant characteristic of a new Christian of of the Church.
Enjoy,
