Our understanding of both the Scriptures and science is fallible. However, especially if the Scripture seems to be talking plainly about a topic and science disagrees -- I'll push a lot harder on examining what could be wrong about my understanding related to science than that related to Scripture.
Scripture is the express direct revelation from God. Science can be helpful in understanding how God's creation works -- and WOW parts of His creation are AMAZING. God is a wonderful engineer! However, our understanding of God from nature is VERY imperfect, and should not conflict with what He tells us directly.
You can learn a lot more about a potter from a love letter from Him than from the cracked pot!
(I would remind TEs that this is not the proper forum for debates -- I'm just plain tired of arguing and justifying why I have the audacity to defy the scientific establishment right now)
