you're right of coursealthough there is the risk which goes hand in hand with science which is that it's a bunch of stuff which seems to back each other up and make sense... until it's proved wrong - I personally think it would be hard to make a rational argument against evolution (ever) but - still - a well founded and rational belief is still a belief and Scientists have been wrong in the past.

I can see that side of it, yes, science can be wrong (and surprisingly often)But it is based in fact and reason - theories are updated when new fact is happened upon, religion isn't, it just makes excuses...

Some religions do occasionally update their views.For example, the Catholic church admitted its mistake about the Earth being at the centre of the solar system, and admitted that evolution is probably correct.
It just takes a shit lot of evidence for them to do it.
