Religion attempt to provide answers where there are none. Effectively shutting down the search for answers. As a scientist, you must have surely have a gigantic problem with this.
That would be incorporated into a net effect.
Also, I know the narrative that the secular, atheist education system provides is that Christianity was an obstruction to science, but the actual documents regarding those times don't so clearly say that. Indeed there is very good reason to believe that Christianity was a driver of the growth of science, even as popular negative instances exist.
