"Science" is blind adherence to authority, whether it's NASA or your chosen youtuber.
Science is a tool for you to use. You can get your own answers if you know what you're doing. Fundamentally, it means "the world operates on consistent, logical principals which all work together" and you can determine these principals by testing them.
If authority is truth then adherence is a good thing. Bad religion is blindly following false teachings. Bad science is also.
There are limitations to science because it describes a finite (limited) material world.
Knowing what those limitations are and why is the key to understanding science instead of fearing and hating it. I consider it a 'left-handed' knowledge and can be useful even though I'm naturally right-handed. To 'balance' the two forms of knowledge is key.
How old is this battle? Science and religion come from the same source.
See "The Guide For the Perplexed" by Moses Maimonides for the definitive book on the perplexing subject.
