Absolutely correct!
They never have been.
Not truly, no, though it's fair to say that what happened to Galileo, for instance, was the result of inflexible religious dogma being incompatible with new scientific findings (sound familiar? :) - But that is not the same thing as science and religion being incompatible.
Only the evolutionists frame this debate as religion vs. science.
I think it would be fairer to say that there are some people on both sides of the argument who do this, and some who do not. I, myself, currently accept the theory of evolution, as I know of scientific evidence supporting it but have not encountered scientific evidence refuting it - But I also believe in the value of the core principles of Christianity. I don't find it helpful for anyone to frame the debate in this way - Hopefully you will see that from looking at my other posts.
In short - Don't give up on the "evolutionists" :) Though actually it's also not helpful to refer to people as either evolutionists or creationists, because this again raises an artificial division between people that need not be there. I do not think there's malice here, or that people are trying to hurt one another, for the most part - We're just trying to figure things out, and we don't always have the same ways of doing it. Which is why we must be tolerant and keep an open mind...

Yes, you are correct. It was a faction, not Christianity itself.
