science doesn't state that it is at any moment infallible
just that at any given time the scientific consensus is the best we can have to be going on with. if you think otherwise you have failed to understand the scientific method. i think you maybe know this so you're going for straw men cos they're easier to flame. religion is wrong because it urges the consensus reality to mold around it rathewr than the opposite. whatever religious tradition would have suggested to treat your dad was wrong then and wrong now. at least science inherently acknowledges that it is only as right as we know for now and is infinitely open to revision. religion claims to be eternal truth despite changing to fit with the prevailing philisophical orthadoxy.

my gran died and after she was just dead not ever living just dead but people said she lives forever and i saw them feel better.

SO IT MUST BE TRUE EH?
