Nobody resists scientific progress more than scientists desperately clinging to their obsolete paradigm. One day Darwinism will be considered as ridiculous as the idea of a flat Earth.
For example, Darwin posited that evolution operated by small changes over long periods of time, but the fossil record does not reflect that. Species appear in the fossil record inexplicably. The gradual and uniform evolution Darwin suggested is not reflected by the fossil record. So the scientists came up with a new theory punctuated equilibrium, to explain why evolution apparently occurs not gradually at all, but in rapid spurts.
When actual evidence proved their theory wrong, they just moved the bar and came up with a new theory just like they always do.
One day there will be even better theories to replace the current ones. These better theories won't be perfect, but they will be seen as far superior to the inadequate understanding we have today.
