Just to get this right.... your dig at Science is that it challenges the results to ensure the beliefs of science can be proven rather than just believing tales about someone with wine for blood passed on by illiterate people 2000 years ago and never changing any views regardless of how obviously flawed those views are?

This cleared it up for me, Science is awesome.

The point of my post is, yes, science is awesome, I agree, even though it didn't know that bacteria did exist and even though it was wrong a lot of times.

There's a limit to what science can see. They can see today a lot of things that they couldn't in the past. They still can't see God though.

Science do can be wrong and needs to correct itself all the time.

Yes, that's because new evidence and new studies can enlighten us. The purpose of science is to be malleable and change as new information comes to us. Without that, it's stagnant. Can science be wrong? Yes, it certainly can. However, the advent of the scientific method has gone to great lengths to minimize such inaccuracies and we've made leaps and bounds towards knowing what's around us. 

Religion, on the other hand, doesn't have any of that. It's rigid in its presentation of facts and yet up for interpretation from its believers. It brings nothing new to the table, doesn't allow new facts and evidence influence it, and demands respect while refusing to adapt with the times. 

Religion is your racist grandfather, set in his ways and convinced the world was better when black folk or women weren't given the same rights as white men. 

That's why religion has no place outside of ancient history class, and certainly no place next to science.
