Science takes the previously authoratative position that spirituality, religion and your wise elders once had. It does not become something to grow from, nourish yourself upon and change the world with - it becomes a cudgel to bludgeon the curmudgeon with. The curmudgeon being anyone with a shred of respect for the traditional beliefs of their ancestry.
