I also think that you should probably look up what scientism is, because this makes no sense. You should be able to quickly find a number of articles that tell you why people are against it, and that it is not about being against science.
Scientism is a meaningless word which people that are angry at reality use.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
