Only because they often are... which is what makes science so great. If everything was thought to be correct, what good would testing and new discovery be? The fact that scientists have historically been wrong drives scientists to prove other scientists wrong.

  • Make a guess
  • Prove yourself wrong, or get someone else to do it
  • Repeat
