Any morality attached to science is superficial; it doesn't innately spark from science itself. This is not to make the case that religion is thus necessary, but rather that science is, ultimately, not able to answer questions concerning how best to live as a society or as an individual. It can provide data and information that is useful to that end, but it cannot, in and of itself, answer those questions.
