Another problem with science, is when people misunderstand or misinterpret it. It is all too common that people draw completely unfounded conclusions, such as to assume that there is a causal connection just because there is a covariation between two factors, or that they assume that the lack of scientific evidence for some thing, is equivalent to evidence against this thing. This is usually just due to lack of understanding of the nature of science, but often people who knows better use science in an unscientific way to manipulate others. There are constant conflicts between people in the natural sciences and people in humaniora. I'm not certain that this is really a bad thing .
Science needs to be questioned.
On the other hand, this conflict seems to be founded on a narrowmindedness from both sides. The natural sciences on one side sometimes seems to forget that science isn't everything, and the humanists on the other side sometimes seems to be unable to accept reality for what it is, if it contradicts their values and opinions. Another aspect of this conflict is that people on both sides lack understanding for the basic systems and languages of the other side. They just see things from their own perspective, and when they read or hear something from the enemy side, they fail to understand what these people really mean. Science and technolgy are very powerful tools though, and they can be used for good as well as bad.
