A lot of us prefer to believe God instead of man, because He's never lied. He doesn't have to keep correcting his theories, either.

Then why is there a New Testament?

If you are assuming that the Bible is the direct and literal word of God, then yes he has lied to you. The creation and Noachian floods are both demonstrably incorrect.

The reason science corrects theories is because our technology and thus our ability to see deeper into the nature of nature improves our conclusions. Because science is self correcting it becomes more and more accurate.
