I'll give you that only with a *long* "eventually" added to the end. Science as a whole will hold on to popular theories long after they have outlived their usefulness, and stridently attack those who prove the theories wrong. Wait a few centuries, and everything seems to be ironed out.

If you're saying that it takes several hundred years for scientific theories to be revised once objectively verifiable evidence is available that the current theory is wrong, I say you're full of it.
