Yes they are. Ancient philosophy was the precursor to science.
"Philosophy" in antiquity was simply guessing. But because of the likes of Plato, and others that followed, philosophy got replaced by scientific method.
I am sorry but even today, even Christian apologists have this bullshit argument of "Non Overlapping Magisteria"
It is the bullshit argument that science and religion are compatible.
It is true in every religion that there are religious scientists that are ethical enough to leave their religion out of the lab. But there are assholes in every religion who have science degrees to stupidly attempt to use science to point to their book/god/club.
Victor Stenger debunks this crap in two of his books, "God The Failed Hypothesis" and "The New Atheism".
