Because the god of the bible supposedly created man from two people, which allowed for original sin to come into existence, so without Adam and Eve there would be no original sin. This would leave no necessity for the death of Jesus(even though there is no necessity in the first place, because an all powerful god would have the power to just forgive us, without a human sacrifice). Your religion hinges on the concept of forgiveness, and if we hadn't "brought sin on ourselves", and we were instead created with it, this would make your god unjust. And it says in multiple places in the bible that god is just, making it a contradiction of his nature. So yeah... they aren't compatible.
IIN for my belief in biology to overcome my belief in religion
