Science is checkable, open, repeatable and transparent for who ever invests some time to understand... these are not typical characteristics of a tool suitable for brainwashing.

I agree on a basic level, although that makes me assume that all scientists are honest and have published true science. What if scientists use their accolades in the field to try and convince people about other things that didn't actually go through the scientific process? Or if they peddle theories as proven facts?
That is true. But it is not the science "fault" when it gets hijacked ;-)
For example I really dislike, when people are trying to convince me about esoteric or spiritual matters by telling me that all would be scientifically proven.
Thank you I see your point :). I am a person of faith but I would be lying to myself to call it "scientifically" proven. Theories at best.
well if it is endlessly repeatable, there is no room to discover anything new. It is because there are always new elements coming into play that the experience is limited in time
