Science, in contrast, is the attempt to reach demonstrable, replicable, conclusions about the natural world (and social science is the corresponding attempt to reach demonstrable conclusions about the social or human world).
Science and religion are very different, both in what they try to do and in the approaches they use to accomplish their goals.
Science and religion thus are not, or should not be, competing approaches, because they seek to accomplish different things, and by different methods.
DNA plays an important role in computer science, both as a motivating research problem and as a method of computation in itself.
Research on string searching algorithms, which find an occurrence of a sequence of letters inside a larger sequence of letters, was motivated in part by DNA research, where it is used to find specific sequences of nucleotides in a large sequence.
Chargaff had observed that the proportions of the four nucleotides vary between one DNA sample and the next, but that for particular pairs of nucleotides -- adenine and thymine, guanine and cytosine -- the two nucleotides are always present in equal proportions.
