Eventually, one will clash with the other. I also don't believe you should be able to pick and choose which parts of a religion you believe in. Either you're all in or all out. Disregarding one aspect cheapens a belief in another aspect.
I can only say 'fair play' to anyone religious who helped to observe and learn nature but I don't doubt those conclusions would have been reached at some point, maybe even sooner than that if people weren't immediately attributing the existence of things to a higher power.
