Teaching non-scientific concepts in science class will only confuse students about the processes, nature, and limits of science.

Bullseye.

Nothing better teaches “the limits” of science (as you define it) than the inclusion of alternatives to science (as you define it). Failure to do so actually makes students believe that science can explain everything adequately, or that science is the only thing “real”.
