Not to be anti-science, but it is worth taking into account that there are a lot of things we think we know now that may turn out to be wrong. Particularly things that are far away in space and time, where the points of data are few. Popular articles discuss the latest theories as "now we know this to be true." I'm thinking articles about details of the Dinosaurs or the size of distant planets. It may be right, but it could be revised with new knowledge.

That's not anti-science, that's the whole point of science. It's the willingness to incorporate new information. The current understanding is always understood to be based on currently available information. I'll take it over religion any day, which is: there is nothing more to be learned about our origin, nature, purpose and future, the founding documents do not get changed or updated as new information is acquired, we can only invent new excuses for the ever increasing incongruence.
