Science is simply the discipline used to examine the universe and find out how it works. Although scientists may get things wrong from time to time, science itself only ever reveals the truth about the world.
The reason that people like fr0d0 seem so against science simply seems to me because it contradicts practically every aspect of their belief.
The Bible suggests the world is only a few thousand years old. This is clearly wrong.
The Bible states that all humans derive from Adam and Eve. Again, wrong.
Noah's Ark and the global flood. Clearly a fairy story.
And the list goes on and on.
The trouble is that when you fall in love, either with a person or in this case, a book, then anything that by its very nature contradicts and disagrees with your love will always be a target. This isn't the fault of science as it exists in its own right but more the fault of those who do not have the necessary ability to realise that just because you want to believe something is true does not make it so.
