What is at the core of the science/religion conflict?

[Ben Dhyan]

The quantum world is still not fully understood. I'm in the camp who does not think it is random.

It also depends on how you define patterns, and how you define order. - which is more ordered, a glass cup sitting on a table, or a glass cup shattered on the floor? One person might think the cup on the table is more ordered ... from another perspective, the earth would be more ordered if everything existed at a uniform height creating a perfectly smooth surface...

Yes....there is still a lot to be understood...and it is the dark energy and dark matter that constitutes 95% of the universe that hold the answers..plus the 2.5% that is not understood about the physics of matter so that makes it 97.5% of the universe still undetectable...

Now the aether theory of metaphysics and the spirit of religious theory both hold that there is an omnipresent medium present throughout the universe...and this at a time when the contemporary science held that space was a vacuum...including the space between atomic particles... Now science is saying that there an omnipresent medium...dark energy...present throughout the universe.. Clearly this is a case of a rose by any other name....time will tell whether dark energy will have an ordering principle and for me who does not have to wait for any consensus...it does... The ancients understood the universal principles....but not the details...
