1) scientific method
2) that science is a tool, not a belief system
3) that the body of facts and theories that make up scientific knowledge is always open to question and restructuring
4) that beliefs are not the purview of science, nor subject to science
5) that to disprove something is easy if you can exhaustively test that one thing and follow scientific method if it is not true
6) that things that are not testable are not disproved by science
7) that religion is not the enemy, as science does not have enemies being only a tool for our use
8) that creationism might be true; there is simply insufficient evidence, scientifically tested, to accept it as the most likely explanation, thus it isn't the primary theory put forth
9) that we DON'T have deductive proof that we evolved from primates; we have inductive proof until we can time travel; mind, it is VERY GOOD inductive proof, but not absolute
10) that it really doesn't matter what religious people deny, as is their right to believe what they choose
11) that without belief systems, we wouldn't be able to mentally explore those things that are neither testable, or repeatable, and thus would find ourselves in a fairly booring and stifling world of people who can only think and talk about things that have ALREADY been proved or explored

I think EVERYONE should know something about science, although I'm not sure what you mean by "believers in science".

Yes, which is why I stay current with it.
But, by the way, it doesn't require "belief" to follow science. Science has evidence, unlike religion, and so there is no reason to "believe." You can simply know.

It is easy to refute Creationst's science with a limited knowledge of real science.
You might want to learn something about science. Your knowledge was 2,000 years out of date when Newton penned "Principia".

Science is a method, not a belief. The belief is in the value of experience (data) and the formalisms of logic.

Yes.
But it's not our fault that you don't get it.
