Carl Sagan On The Humility Of Science And The Far More Frequent Arrogance Of Religion And Politics

Carl Sagan On The Humility Of Science And The Far More Frequent Arrogance Of Religion And Politics | "In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. 
I cannot recall the last time something like that 
happened in politics or religion."

Science is never concrete because it's based on a theory with a hypothesis that is observed over time to prove weather something happened or doesn't happen developed into facts that can also change if a new element or change is introduced, or some other scientists comes up with a new theory and tests it and observes the hypothesis over time.

And then there are the times science becomes both politics and religion.
