'Science' can be wrong alot of times and has proven to be.
Sure, sometimes "scientists" are wrong. As an approach, "science" very seldom is. This is because it's inherently a flexible discipline--it alters its hypotheses to suit the available data. In real science, the data rules.

The other approach is to make the data suit what you'd rather believe. Somewhere, Dr. Tim Ball is blushing as I write this.
