"That nothing in science is provable.

But we have also stated that theories are verifiable and are only accepted when they pass testing.

I explained why science is not provable a number of posts ago. I also explained why we can trust theories without some specific absolute proof. Our entire technological society is based on science that has never been proven in the sense you use the term. Is that not enough for us to be confident in its value?
