What effect did new scientific discoveries have on the religious views of elites and lower classes?

Back in the day when scientific discoveries had just begun, the elite started to see opportunities in the business world that could be made use of due to the advent of scientific discoveries.

In addition to  the profitable version, the elite also started to see conflict between the religious view and the scientific ideas. This conflict created distance between the elite and the religion.

On the other other hand, the lower classes got closer to religion because for them, scientific discoveries were out of reached and they thought of them as devils.

ek = (m.v2) / 2

v - velocity of system after the collision

m = m1 + m2

ek = (m1 + m2) v2/2

ek = (200 + 250) 2,32/2 = 450*5,29/2 = 1190,25 j
