Some say science competes with religion. To some extent that's true. Science can be spiritual while often religion is not. Science is spiritual in the following ways:
1. It involves following a ritual, the scientific method;
2. It demands meticulous attention to details;
3. It requires honesty and being able to change your mind in response to new evidence;
4. It gives you a version of reality that may differ from the intuitive;
5. It involves a search for reality and truth;
6. The observed data depend on the observer and their assumptions;
at the very least.
This view contrasts with that of climate change deniers and other dogmatism. Sometimes science involves altered states of consciousness, as in Kekulé and Einstein. I remember taking physics in college and for quantum mechanics we were allowed to take time before writing anything to think about the problems. Science says we don't have access to objective reality, but at least we can have a consensus and reasoned support. We more easily understand stories than logic, in that we comprehend agency before impersonal processes, but we need both.
