Why do people insist on thinking that science is infallible?

I know this question sounds horrible, but I'm writing a murder mystery. If someone put a radio into a swimming pool, would it shock someone in the pool enough to kill her? And would it be possible for the killer to pull the radio out by standing on something rubber? Could it possibly look like the victim was killed by lightning? Thank you.

A line of indentation always remains. I should imagine the atomic structure of the paper has been impacted in some way that (practically) can't be reversed.

It just doesn't make sense to me...it would make more sense if the universe had always existed but I do keep in mind that the most intelligent scientific minds create these theories and have science to reinforce their views...but still...

Long time ago when I was younger I would hear that the goverment has a time travel machine....could this be possible? Could they change things and we don't even notice? And is it even possible for anyone to time travel?

The answer to this question is very important. So much so that I went to the internet to do the research. There were so many conflicting stories that it made my head spin. The last information I read was studies that Einstein did on the same thing. From what I read...his findings were inconclusive. As long as I am unsure, I'll not be using it in my cooking and that's a shame because it gives a wonderful flavor to many things.

I've always wondered why people bleed so badly when they get cut by broken glass. Does it have to do with the composition of glass (i.e. what substances glass is made of)?

I woke up in a strange hotel room yesterday and I had a lump in my pocket. When I took it out, I saw it had a fishing reel attached to a box. There was a small brass horn and there was also a carrot attached to it. There is a crank on one side and a rubber bulb with a tassel near the horn. There is a small silver plate riveted to the side and it has “Mr. Thingy” etched onto the plate. What is this thing? Should I keep it or get rid of it?

Think about it. If scientists are right, when I'm playing 8-ball and miss a shot, could it be my double from our "mirror" planet picked the wrong ball. I mean, I'm thinking I should have played the 3-ball and that nut-cake chose the 4-ball instead.
Is it my double's fault I can't "bank" because he hasn't taken the time to learn, to practice?
What's up with that? He's costing me wins every week.
Could it be because I shoot right-handed and he (because of the "mirror" is a southpaw?)
I know the earth is slightly tilted to one side, but it would be there, too, right?
Can I get some help on this, please.

the answer for this question should be so simple that a 9 year old boy studying in fourth standard should understand it.

All Life forms on Earth work basically the same way, usually having eyes ears nose mouth and feet of some sort. Some are an exception, but have at least one of those things.

Could there be some sort of life form in the universe that doesn't Use feet to walk around, or Eyes to see. How could something like this look?! It's difficult to Imagine a Creation that doesn't need those things, how would it know what was around it? but why would everything have to be like us? there has got to be something out of the Ordinary, Maybe it floats off of a chemical reaction that forms under it self and it's repelled by some weird gasses in the atmosphere or air on the planet, who knows!
What do you think something could be like? Explain how it could look or move or anything?
