The role of science is to provide us with a firm ground on which we can actually stand together.  We, coming from a different background and having a different brain from each other's, have different opinions and view of the world.  But if we did not enroll this class, or learned about objective theories taught in science courses, we would not know how our brains construct different worlds and how the truth of each individuals varies. 

Indeed, I think science with its certain objectivity bind us together and put us in the situation where we feel that we need to share our own stories and make new observations to add onto the pre-existing human knowledge.  Just like the Bible, i think sciecne is one example of good textbook that we all look at and make argument for/against.
