But not all religions are making historical claims, are they? You're making a false equivalency between different kinds of claims.

Bullshit, we can prove Mecca to be a real place. Muslims would point to that REAL PLACE as evidence for the existence of Allah.

Buddhists will point to their writings and real people and real places and claim that Buddha is the start of human wisdom.

Jews do the same.

Your stuck in the idea that "fact" and "history" and "scientific fact" the word "fact" means the same thing equally in all context. That is where your logic is fucking up. That is why you either unwittingly or willingly refuse to understand the importance of NEUTRALITY when using science to determine SCIENTIFIC FACT.

Religion cannot be mixed with science if the scientist wants to be neutral and objective. 

Some scientists try to escape that by claiming they are "Separate but equal".

That is simply bullshit they pull to compartmentalize to justify cherry picking the parts of science they agree with and run away from science when it points away from their claims.

The bottom line is religion and science are NOT compatible because scientific method is not a religion itself, it is a tool, a neutral tool and works regardless of any personal bias the person has. Once you try to mix religion and science you have lost all objectivity.
