Science is not, and should not be, an ideology, because the purpose of science is to discover and apply provable facts. Since religion really is an idealogy but science is not, religion wins.

On the other hand, pseudo-science, which is the use of plausible, scientific-sounding but unprovable claims, often in the service of religion, could be considered an ideology. However, the claims of pseudo-science are readily dismissed, so it is not a strong ideology.

supplement. Importantly, science is prepared to be wrong and to incorporate new ideas. And to seriously question concepts that do not fit comfortably with the main body of expert opinion.
