You confuse Science and Scientists. Scientists are human being and thus suceptible to authority, prestige, pressure and greed.
Only by constant cross-checking can Scientists strive for the ideals of Science.
Real-life science is not perfect (whatever is?) but Science a constantly growing
and most importantly self-correcting system, very much unlike most religious
or political dogmatic systems.

Science is nothing more than the discovery, study and application of what exists.

For instance, because something is not 'seen' doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It just means it hasn't been brought into form.

One can get into many examples. The planets, stars, solar systems and galaxies all roatate around and with each other in precise mathematical, therefor predictable formation.

Is that 'science'----or is that 'intelligent design'.

You decide!

I suggest you read the studies I mentioned and then take a close look at the "science" behind them. Percent error had some value at one time, politics has changed that.

Has it ever occurred to you that the emphasis on ID may be the beginnings of such a self-correction?
