some religious people try to say that science and religion are both belief systems and that there is no difference between believing in religion or believing in science. this is a big misconception of how science works. science is defined by its method of collecting data and its ability to change when new data comes along, its not defined by its content. also, science does not establish what the unalterable truth is, science establishes models and theories that have a degree of applicability and when a new model comes along with a better degree of applicability it replaces the previous one so it is implied that the ultimate truth can never be known since we only have models of what the ultimate truth might be.
