Not who you're replying to, but I'll attempt a diplomatic answer.

Many (not all) atheists and theists alike lack the capacity to separate fact and faith in their worldviews, and see them as conflicting with one another.

But some people see them as entirety separate realms that do not interact. For us science and fact is based on knowledge and impiricism, whereas faith is based on the unknowable.

Thatbis, something cannot be known AND believed. If it can be known, it's in the realm of science. If it cannot be known it is the realm of faith. They don't conflict because they are entirely separate, and pitting them against each other is like arguing about the conflict between Wayne Gretsky and Renee Descartes.
