    Clearly science is always correcting itself, it cannot be infallible, but is prone to mistakes that they are always fixing. A flawed system than cannot be trusted.

    Unlike religion, which is never ever proven wrong. That makes it reliable and trustworthy. It's even self-certifying.

That does not compute.
