I don't blame it on science. The principles of science are deliberately invented to get around this problem. Blame it on human behavior.
It's unfortunate to say that the very tenants science tries to eliminate are actually normal parts of human behavior. Our actions, logic and reasoning are dominated by emotion and an attempt to hold onto power. Status seeking and religious bias are normal parts of human behavior.
The irony of it all is that we hate this type of behavior but are seduced by it nonetheless. A good analogy is the Dark side of the force.
One thing I've seen people fall for is that they think they're immune to this bias by being aware that it exists. Nothing is further from the truth. We are all victims of bias and we are all not immune because to be biased is to be human.
