Not possible. Science and religion are as different and insoluble as oil and water. Each have their function and each are useful in their own domain of human experience and learning, but they are not things that can be explained in one another’s terms. They are different epistemologies.
If we rephrase it a little, what I hear is:
“We like to lean on [repeating sound bites we’ve heard scientists say and/or headlines and key findings from scientific papers and articles], and yet the more we do that, the more we make [our habit of doing that sound the same as unreflective repetition of texts and ideas from religious traditions]”.
To me that captures what’s happening there. There is a pattern today of inserting sound bites and unreflective repetition into our words - has been for a long time - and it happens in a lot of topics humans talk about (scientific research and religious experience among them). It’s not a problem of science or of religion; it’s that there’s something missing in how we think and how we communicate what we (think we) know.
