Compatible but rare. When belief guides virtue and science guides method, they can coexist in harmony while each honors the other's domain.
Personal choice? Nonsense. Belief and science aren’t accessories you pick; they demand scrutiny, or they betray themselves as superstition.
I disagree. In a free society belief and method are not rare partners; moral sentiments guide virtue and method enlarges knowledge, and they cooperate.
Belief must bow to virtue and reason; science without virtue is vanity, and belief without inquiry becomes superstition.
