Which scientists try to disprove god? I haven't heard of any. Sure, lots of scientists criticise religion when it conflicts with science, but I don't think there are any that have actually tried to disprove god.

Not all science changes, we know for instance that animals evolve over millions of years. Darwin figured it out, but we still don't know everything there is to know about it, when new information is found and deemed reliable, it is added. The general gist of the theory is still the same, just small things are altered.
Another example, aeroplanes. You've flown on one before right? Well the science that makes them fly, hasn't changed despite the creation of new types of planes.

Yes it is. How many people have you killed for working on the sabbath? Or wearing two different fabrics? Or burnt at the stake for witchcraft?

Then this 'former evolutionary scientist' would be wrong.
