That might be true, but it's a non-sequitur because this thread is talking about the epistemic practices of a particular group. Whether "science" (the institution, method, or humanity in general) will eventually arrive at the truth is irrelevant.

Is it irrelevant? Did this group arrive at a scientifically validated set of conclusions? If not, move on.
