What a ridiculous premise for a discussion. Obviously if a large number 
of scientists hold religious personal views, then there can't be much of 
a conflict (unless all scientists with religious views are schizophrenic).

People who frame science and religion at each other's throats are either 
uninformed on the subject, or deceitfully trying to manipulate opinion.
