It is a story. There's true stories and there's untrue stories. I don't refuse to believe in something because I believe the main character is a monster. I think Putin is butthead, but I still believe he exists. By the way, scientists told me there were nine planets in the solar system and now they tell me there's only eight. Why can't they be consistent? I can't accept science anymore because they're always changing their minds. Scientists have been wrong more times that I can count. Next thing you know they'll tell me that bloodletting treatments can be harmful.

There are... Subject/verb agreement. Did you not pay attention in English class as well as science class?

Of course our body of knowledge changes. We continue to investigate and learn more, leading to correcting, extending, correcting theories and evidence.
Science is consistent - it is just not absolute or final. You are objecting to a strawman constructed from your own ignorance.

It is religion that holds to absolute knowledge; especially absolute knowledge that is not possible to actually have and for which there is no evidence.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
