The role of science is to test hypothesis with repeatable experimentation... beliefs may suggest a hypothesis to test, but beyond that, science has no obligation to "beliefs" of any kind... it has to do with observable, repeatable, real-world fact.

So, doing experiments to see if walking under a ladder is bad luck?
