My biggest problem in the science vs. religion debate is that people very rarely actually apply the scientific method. For so many, "science" is the new religion, not based on observation and testing, but based on faith and indoctrination.
People fail to comprehend that while the laws of nature may be constant and infallible, "science" - our unique understanding of the universe - is not. In fact, fallibility is a fundamental building block upon which we learn.
