science changes because they look for answers or a better way of doing things. They try to find how and why things work. Faith is not based on looking for facts etc but blindly following an ancient myth.

The Bible was written over thousands of years. The scriptures are such because they are the writings that believers kept in circulation and trusted as the Word of God. There wasn't all of a sudden a book called the Bible, people had been reading and trusting in the scriptures for a long time. So, when Paul made a claim such as:
6After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.
in his letter to the Corinthians, if people wanted to prove him wrong, they could have tried to disprove what all these WITNESSES saw, but they didn't.

Consider this:
Science is ever-changing because it is open to new ideas. Would it be science or dogma if scientists just slapped a "God did it" sticker on everything that cannot be explained....yet? Would you be happy believing the earth to be flat? Or that the earth is the center of the universe? Would you be happy having never questioned or thought about how things really work? Or are you content with the status quo of two thousand years ago?

"How can you consider something false and ridiculous when you haven't tested or tried it as you have with all your other experiments and trials?"
What would you say to the many atheists here who were Christians earlier in life, many of whom tried their hardest to believe in the Bible for many years? You make it sound like atheists have always rejected Christianity and never once gave it a chance. I'd be willing to bet that almost all atheists here have "tested and tried" Christianity or some organized religion at some point in their lives. At one point in my life, I tried my hardest to do the same. I tried to accept everything the Bible has to offer and for countless reasons, I reached a point where I just couldn't do it. What do you have to say to people like me, who looked at it with a totally open mind, gave it total effort, and made an honest decision?

That is because real scientists aren't afraid to test things. When an accepted theory is dis-proven by new evidence, real scientists don't stick their heads in the sand and ignore it. They test things and when necessary, change or discard old theories in favor of new ones that better explain natural phenomena.
Have a nice day.

it isn't strange. science is based on trial and error meaning that if they are wrong they change their theory to try (yet fail) to hide their faults. here's how it would be like:
-here's all the evidence of god; videos, pictures, everything . you are wrong!
scenario 1:
scientist:am not!
scenario 2:
scientist: well that;s exactly what i said right...*scribble*... here!
