I'd argue that "pro-science" is absolutely a position. People holding this position might argue that science isn't the best way to learn information about the world (e.g. divine revelation or intuitionism might be preferred), or that the application of science to find solutions to our problems leads to bad outcomes (e.g. Luddites or Mennonite/Amish communities).
Whether we agree with that position or not is a whole different beast, but it absolutely is a real and tenable position that people can and do hold.

Wait, this is worded incorrectly right? The pro-science position would be the one claiming that science is the best (or at least one good) way to learn information about the world right? I'd agree in that case that a person can be pro-science.
