Please, enough with the word games and semantics.

"God did it" is not a scientific statement, it is a religious one.

Science and religion are incompatible in that anything the bible says, cannot be questioned on any evidence whatsoever, you have to take it on faith that it is true.

Scientific theories, hypothesis, etc, are always questioned, changed by new evidence, or removed totally as new hypothesis replaces old ones.

Religion is stagnant, science is always moving forward.

Religion gives comfort through faith.

Science just gives the answers that it concludes are correct, and if they gore someones bull, so be it.

Well just today I was reading the book of the prophet Jeremiah and in it, God says that He will send Jesus at a certain time in history. He did just that. There are many many many other examples, but that's the main one.

I am glad to see you capitalize God - even if it is the first word in the sentence :-).

Religion becomes incompatible with science only if science presents facts that are incompatible with basic beliefs. The more we learn about our world, the less incompatible science and religion become.

That statement is not entirely accurate. Bible contains basic truths that cannot be questioned (e.g., God created the Universe.) Most other things are open to interpretation. (This is not my idea. It was originally presented by Thomas Aquinas.)
