But proponents of Evolution always take the attitude that: “This is science. We know this stuff. These are facts. We know all about this, so go away and shut up because Evolution cannot be questioned.”

And then they find out that their facts are wrong. So they get new facts.

And they adjust their theory (but NEVER question the pre-ordained conclusion). And they say: “This is science. We know this stuff. These are facts. We know all about this, so go away and shut up because Evolution cannot be questioned.”

It’s a cult.

Natural science consists of two basic elements: observations (aka "facts") and explanations (aka hypotheses/theories).
Every day science learns new facts which cause adjustments to their explanations, it's how science works.

Of course when people who loathe & despise science itself claim they have "facts" or ideas which falsify scientific theories, well... scientists will not normally take them seriously until their own observations confirm such claims.
