Should it be atheists, theists, any other group, or just all people in general without any discrimination?
Science is basically a tool which allows us to understand the How but not the Why sometimes. Science is a strict peer-reviewed process which can change its position based on new evidence. So Science doesn’t care either way of the implications and this is as close as we can get to an unbiased process.
The question is do you folks here have any problems with any groups using science to support their position?
My answer to this question is : I don’t have any problems with anybody using science to support their beliefs. Anybody can use it without discrimination.
I've detected more problems with your premise. The question or problem is relevant to the manner in which science is used. For instance, if you are asking why butterflies fly to Mexico in the winter, then the scientific method is a quite valid tool to use.
The scientific method is not a tool with a password; it can be used by anyone who knows how to use it. But if you misuse it, the answers won't be valid and can easily be voided by someone who uses it correctly.
Why is it so?
