Perhaps we need to differentiate between religion and spiritual principles. Science does not need religion to understand the world, but until science embraces certain spiritual principles then its understanding of the world will always be limited.
For example, science will never grasp the nature of the physical universe until it takes into account other non-physical planes of existence, without which this physical universe would not exist.
