There have been many cases where religion and science clashed historically, to the detriment of religion. I did not write this law, and it has been around for a very long time, since the 19th century. All it takes to disprove a scientific law is one exception, this has not happened.
What has happened is science has established matter and energy are the same thing. If you can create energy from nothing, you can create matter from nothing. Folks who believe this is possible generally believe in magic, since it is pretty much the same thing.
If you're religious beliefs include magic that is your choice, it is an issue of faith. I'll go with science in predicting what will happen under a set of circumstances though.
