Of course science is an unbearable threat to both faith and the prestige of faith, otherwise the faithful wouldn't try so hard to fight science while attempting to avail themselves of the prestige of science by flying a false science flag

No, science is a threat to fundamentalism and a view that Scripture (Bible, Koran or whatever religious text you prefer) it is not a threat to faith itself as can be seen by the comparatively few actual scientists that have religious faith.

No it can't.

I personally knew a highly respected applied physicist whose contribution to the invention of the MRI earned him nominations for a Nobel Prize in physics by nobel laureates in Physics. The MRI inventor was also an outspoken creationists and biblical fundamentalist. In the end, Nobel Prize was shared between a few other co-inventors of the MRI, but denied to him, despite the fact that in academic circles it is thought that his contribution surpassed those of his collegues. It is thought that recognition was given to others in preference to him due to his well-known fundamentalist beliefs.

So the fact that there are actual scientists who holds a certain view by no means indicates the view can be accommodated to science. Training in science improves the odds that the trainees would adopt measures against intellectual dissonance in his private world view. It does not guaranty it.

Did you even read what I wrote? Who the hell said anything about accommodation? I specifically said science is not compatible with fundamentalism. Religious faith does not have to be fundamentalism AS CAN BE SEEN by the real scientists that have religious faith (not fundamentalism you illiterate bastard).
