    Laws are so incredibly robust that any time there is evidence that they are "wrong" it is actually due to error on the scientist's part or that there is another factor at play that was not considered.

    EDUCATE YOURSELVES.

    Theories + lots of time = laws.

    Science never discounts the possibility of being wrong. They can, however, make very educated guesses about things they have been right about for awhile.

    I don't think you understand the difference between theory and scientific theory. They're not the same, you know.

    SCIENTIFIC THEORIES HAVE A LOT OF EVBIDENCE.
