If one defines “science” in such a way that it can not be used to consider probability of life elsewhere in the universe because for now it is untestable (poppycock) or gives the wrong answer (absence of evidence = evidence of absence) then there needs to be some new word to use for that type of research.
IMO it is better to allow science to be used for SETI and ID than to try to define it only for atheist sensibilities.
