Which is its job.  So your complaint is something that does its job is 
bad?  You must have an interesting employment history.

You have that backwards.  Claiming to have "Truth(tm)!" when unable to 
demonstrate that it is, in fact, true is the hallmark of religion.  
Science is very clear that its theories are provisional, always, never to 
be confused with "Truth(tm)".

Since you obviously don't understand even the tiniest aspect of what 
science is, your opinions on it are about as valid as my  four-year-old's 
opinions on geopolitik, and for the same reason.

If you have an actual argument, make it.  If all you have is empty crap 
like what you offered above, grow up, get an education, and shut the fuck 
up until then.

HTH.  HAND.
