There are no problems with science itself but with the practitioners of science. Science is a perfect logical rational pursuit. Practitioners of science however are human and therefore subject to all our various irrationalities. Many scientists for example, will scoff at certain "soft" sciences. Its almost as if they are terrified of the unknown. Science is about finding evidence to support theories of the unknown not rejecting theories because the phenomena they deal with are too unusual.
Having a purely scientific view can be empty. There is a fundamental need for people to connect with something larger outside themselves. Religion does provide this connection but religion is usually far too primitive for intellectually advanced people to embrace. An organized life philosophy can fill the spiritual gaps yet remain completely compatible with science.
