I should probably post up my lecture notes on ontology and epistemology sometime. It's interesting stuff to talk about when everybody is on the same page...

Phrenology was once accepted science.  Dont get me wrong, science is our paradigm model for knowledge. I am all for knowledge. However logic has its limitations.
The thing about science is that, no it isn't always right and it doesn't have all the answers. If it did, it wouldn't exist anymore.

The belief or faith science will solve all our problems and accelerate our civilization to a Utopian future is a modern concept. We are in a postmodern epoch now.
