Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.

Yes science is faulty, but it itself acknowledges that and self-corrects, that is why it is a lot better than religion

Science is the work of humans and some humans: make shit up, are wrong or lazy.
Fortunately the nature of science eventually clears these things up.
Science, it works bitches!
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
