  A tool for learning:
  Disagreement: I don't believe that the teachings of the two philosophies are the same and simply lacking a common vocabulary.  (Religious) faith traditions and science, as two vehicles to truth, each have a sphere of competence in which they operate.  This dualistic distinction is unfortunate but necessary based on that which is observable and that which is knowable outside of observation.  Within the Christian (broadly) and Catholic (specifically) traditions, the two are harmonized most closely in that science is tethered to an underlying belief in the Goodness of a Creator and that we can know something of His mind through His actions in the physical realm.  This leads us to the Divine Watchmaker of the Deists but, without revelation, I think, no further.  In that Catholic sense, then, there already exists a "symbiosis".  The Catholic faith informs scientific inquiry and infuses it with greater meaning than the merely mechanical one given by science alone.
