The strengths of science are different from the strengths of religion. However as tools each can be helpful for answering or solving specific problems. Depending on what the question is, one tool may be better to use than the other to answer it.

For me, the two go together. Science explains how the universe works while religion is like a handbook on "how to apply science (or how to live) in this universe in order to get the best possible result."
Well said !
I fully agree with you ,I don't understand why people say you can't have both .

You can have both. There are many forms of religion which coexist quite well with science. In fact, there's only one understanding of religion in our culture - that the Biblical account of creation is literally true - which necessarily conflicts with science. Anyone who tells you that religion inherently conflicts with science is defining religion very, very narrowly.
