In my religion (I'm a Jew, btw), we're taught that Torah is the same as science, and science is the same as Torah.

We should then go back and try to figure out where we took the wrong turn so we can correct our misinterpretation of Torah. If however, the science is not in, then we default to what we think the Torah says.If the science is not in why not just say "I don't know!" .
kind of like when a light bulb doesn't "match" a candle. We definitely know its our understanding of the bulb that is wrong, not that we understand the "light" better and made use of that understanding to make better candles.
You do understand that, in the end, the universe made the better bulb right?
