The thing that differentiates science from religion is repeatability. With religion everyone has their own opinion, people out of contact with each other come up with radically different religious beliefs and there is no way to bridge between those beliefs. If we forgot everything we know about religion, in a thousand years we might rediscover religion again but they'd be entirely different religions from what we have now.
With science it doesn't matter who does a given experiment, anyone else doing the same experiment will get the same results. There's no scope for disagreement about verifiable scientific facts. Just do the experiment and find out. If we forgot everything we know about science, in a thousand years if we rediscovered science, very quickly we'd rediscover all the exact same facts about the world again.
