That said, I think that phrasing the question as 'Religion vs. Science' is lacking subtlety. Just because the loudest religionists claim that Science is a massive conspiracy designed to subjugate them, doesn't mean they all do. They're a vocal minority at best. There are plenty of religious people out there who have no problem with the Big Bang and evolution.
I just phrased it that way as it seemed to sum up the point and expressed the sentiment easily. There is no definate right or wrong answer and of course there are shades of grey. Even the Pope has said that the events of genesis probably aren't actually how the universe started, but that God was still behind the big bang.

There are also beliefs about science being a social construct. There are people who vehemently oppose science, as well as religion.
