Assuming you see statistics and opinion polls as a science :-)

The idea that a million lemmings cannot be wrong falls down when number one million and one says "fuck going near the edge of that cliff, it's dangerous."

Some here are confusing scientists who happen to be superstitious away from their test tubes and superstition as a science. I have used the tools of science, the analytical approach and allowing my predictions to be blown away, yet if anybody tries telling me there is a football team better than Sheffield Wednesday, it'll take more than mere facts to persuade me. So I see no problem with the concept of the pathology labs at your local hospital being a bit thin on the ground during Friday prayers or an astrophysicist going to church on Sunday. Reality and the search for reason are mutually exclusive to religion. We all have hobbies.

But I were to say that the angle of incidence has to hit the centre of gravity in a vibro feeder because Chris Waddle curled a ball into the net in 1993, ....... What's the difference between that and explaining quantum mechanics as "god did it"?
