I don't agree with Dr. Roy's logic here. Religions contradicting science is normal, as most of them did not come with any systematic analysis, logic or scrutiny.
As for the Pope, the fellow is smart enough to try to provide some long-term safety to the business that he is the CEO of right now.

Pope is exactly right;
religion should not
contradict science. In fact, it does not. Only some
brain-dead believers
contradict religion and science.
Most religions say - everything
happens as per God's
wills. Following this logic, it should not be difficult to
think that - Big
Bang was one such event that God needed to start his new
creations (point-zero). I like the accommodative nature of
the Pope. Extending
this logic further, one can say – all good ideas do come
to those who are chosen
by God, and scientists are the chosen ones to convey those
messages, since dull-headed
believers are no good for such complex
messages. Jiten Roy
