Scientists can't be wrong according to these guys. Because just about all scientists are in agreement on a theory that is interesting and does provide hope for explanations (which is the bedrock of science), they cannot be wrong. You know, it is possible for everybody on earth to be wrong about something and a handful of people to be right.
Let's just summarize this by saying evolutionary theory is tentative. It holds promise and is the most likely explanation for what we see in the world. It is not absolutely certain, but worth investigating for years to come.
