The Bible, Quran, Torah, whatever, don't really address many scientific issues that have seen advancements over the past 2,000 years. We've invented AC, computer, we know the earth goes around the Sun now, but these aren't incompatible with religious texts. The primary question of where did everything come from remains unanswered by Big Science.

this is not the correct way of looking at religious texts. religious texts are not making factual claims about things like heliocentrism. they are spiritual stories. this kind of literalist reading is ttt american evangelical garbage or 19th century german enlightenment tttrash

Even with a literalist reading they don't tend to make any outlandish claims that Science disproves. Most skeptics point to things in Genesis and say "There's no way that happened" which probably aligns with the spiritual stories part, but in terms of the main message of salvation presented by Jesus, Mohamed, or Baal if reading Torah, Big Science has no answer.
Religion says God made the heavens and earth.
Science says that all matter in the observable universe was once the size of a pin and then just randomly exploded, with no plan to reconcile how that's less believable than the Garden of Eden
the problem your side has is many religious people believe they are in fact literal truths and continue to proclaim them so even as science demonstrably proves many of them are not

u want people to believe in some jewgod meanwhile the retards who believed in "covid" 5 years ago look like idiots and are repenting in front of congress or something
But people see individual Bible stories get debunked and think the whole thing is bogus but when science gets debunked it doesn't bother them at all. Real reddit atheists will explain that "science is the pursuit of truth" and it not always right, but I don't think the average normie thinks that far ahead, they just laugh at "no way God created all this" but don't question the "fact" that everything exploded in the Big Bang.

Hot take: the number of “believers” is roughly the same proportion it always has been. We just overestimate the number of religious people in the past.

Not really. Go back even a few hundred years (let alone thousands) and access to info becomes extremely limited. Why is the sky blue suddenly becomes a hard q. In that environment believing "because that's how God decided it" seems as reasonable as anything else.
