Yeah don't bring God into a physics / math discussion :P
oh, i know what you mean. I've never understood the divide though.
the "Church" from its earliest history until even today seems to have a problem with science. But by the same token, science is hell bent on trying to prove that God is a myth devised by simpletons who are to stupid for their own good. I don't understand why there can't be both.
The main difference, I suppose, is that the sciences are generally based on absolutes. 1 == 1 and there is no bending that. Anything can be explained (or will eventually be explained) if you just boil it down to its absolute value. On the other end, religions tend to gloss over the technical details and assume that some things are just better left unexplained.
But I think the two are intertwined and prove each other. With all the variables harmonizing the countless complex systems that make up our known universe, I don't see how those could have all come to be without some sort of control. Even the physical laws that contain those systems (Classical and Quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnitism, etc..) All had to come from somewhere.
I personally believe strongly in both science and in my faith in a judeo-christian God. Science helps us understand God.
