So science is a religion or...?

This is known of the idea of a "god of the gaps", a strawman that claims god is simply an explanation for an origin of life. But that's basically a few chapters in the Bible. We wouldn't need any more than that if it was just a creation narrative.

Natural science and theology are two separate things. That's like saying the American Constitution is unneeded because of science. It doesn't make any sense why the two are compared. Apart from the very vague and likely figurative creation accounts in the beginning of Genesis, there's not much else pertaining to science in the Bible. Tidbits here and there, like how we now know Jesus likely had a collapsed lung, but still tidbits.
