Science is great, but at the end of the day, scientists are only human, and that needs to be taken into account by both scientists and by the general public.
More generally, I'd like to see more emphasis on science as a tool, rather than as a mystical belief system whose practitioners are modern high priests. I think that would go a long way in combatting the fundies who insist that science (or, worse, "Darwinism") is a set of religious beliefs. It might not change their minds but it would be useful for convincing people on the fence.
