You make some interesting points, but they are very much overgeneralized.
Yes Einstein, Newton, and Galileo were extremely religious, but they are remembered for their contributions to science, and not as men of faith.
And I would even agree with you on your anecdotal numbers regarding Newton (I would probably put more influence in Alchemy however), but none of this changes the fact that science and religion are mutually exclusive.
Religion comes from the point of view of faith.
Science has a wee bit of faith, but it is only temporary, and always seeks to improve and simplify its stance through a defined set of protocols.
I do enjoy reading your posts. Seriously, but they are artistic and qualitative speculations.
Interesting speculations, but still speculations.
Cheers.

Christian huh? That makes you a spiritual Jew.... A wild olive plant that is grafted into the cultivated one... A member of the commonwealth of Israel.. But if the cultivated branches can be removed from the olive tree, how much easier the wild one grafted in??? Don't boast against the root then, because the root supports you..... Christian???? Yeah right! Do people in your church read from the white bible by any chance?? Do they wear pillow cases with holes for eyes in at the weekend for a good old session of cross burning??
Why don't you test to see if you are telling the truth? Test my DNA.. See how Semitic I am... You will not be happy with the result I assure you.. Your world view would change very quickly my friend..
