It's impossible to scientifically prove that something does or does not exist, if that thing doesn't have a proper definition.

Yup -  Religions would have to hold true as a whole, not in little bits that are convenient for what is being discussed at the time.  None of the “well that isn’t literal” or “we interpret this that way in this case”

that’s why the first time the Bible was shown to not be literally true throughout was such a big deal (Earth going round the Sun - Genesis paragraph 3 or so).  Now the issue is just fudged.

Who says they have to hold true as a whole? Humans make mistakes. It's only natural things have to be re-interprated from time to time. Scientific study's are often re-interpreted or re-done. Does that make a certain field of science untrue? Of course not.
