Originally you asked why religion and science were perceived to be at odds. Now you are pushing design.

And that is why religion and science are at odds.

""Would you agree that as a general rule of thumb, the more complex something appears, the more likely it is designed?"

No. All the most complex things we see are living life-forms and they show no signs of design.

I am tired of scientists trying to coddle superstition. Science should be at odds with anything that starts out as a naked assertion. To placate the insecurities of superstitious humans is to allow bad claims to fester.
