In places where the laws of physics no longer apply, science fails. That would be before the big bang, and the center of a black hole. Maybe one or two other places. I wouldn't want to set many boundaries for science, because one way to hinder it from solving something is by saying there are areas that it can't solve anything. Science is the best method we have for seeking truth. The kind of faith people put in supernatural forces is not the same as the confidence we have in science, because science demonstrates itsself. Anyone can go to a lab and see a molecule. We don't need to take anyone's word for it.

Science holds up to scrutiny. Religion makes scrutiny a death worthy crime.
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."
