Are you under the impression that you have to give up your religious beliefs when accepting scientific theories? Is that what you mean by it? Is it your opinion that you can be either religious, or accept scientic theories? Not both?
If you do; you don't have to feel that way.
Did you get your information from creationist websites? Don't.
From my experience, a very, very large percentage (more than half) of the scientists in our country are religious (mostly Christian, but with a smaller number of Muslims and Hindus and Sikhs). Yet, they accept scientific theories such as the Theory of Evolution, Big Bang, etc.
The very, very small percentage of religious scientists who reject those theories (I've personally only met one of them in this country in my entire life) who reject those theories do it because of very fundamentalist Churches imported from the US.
The mainline Christian Churches either accept those theories or have not officially expressed any opinion on it.
It's OK to be a Christian or Muslim and accept scientific theories. You don't have to choose.
