Yes, and the scientific method has a built in system to correct false data. Yes, humans make errors. Yes, some scientist will conflate data. That is exactly why peer review exists. Science corrects it's mistakes but it isnt an instant or perfect process. Nothing on Earth is but the scientific method is the MOST RELIABLE process we have for determining reality...hands down.
Show me a better way to determine the laws of the universe if you think science is completely broken.

I don't have a better way. But the fact that you believe that this system is infallible, like a devout catholic believes in the Pope, proves that you are in fact treating "science" in a religious fashion. Everything can fail, especially when that thing involves human beings. I'm not saying it does, and I certainly don't believe that evolution is a hoax like everyone else in this thread, but nonetheless it's healthy to challenge even confirmed science. I believe that's part of the scientific method?
