Yes, but the scientific method leaves in a device for correction, and gladly replaces old data with new. You cannot say the same about most religions. Specifically not with creationists. They're right, so they say, end of story.

In any event my previous points are off topic. I think if you don't like the way the country is headed you can always take a pilgrimage to your homeland - France, Sweden, Germany, Russia or take your pick. There you can enjoy their perfect unemployment rate, their immense influence in the world, and their inability to take a position on anything important (other than non-participation). There you can recharge your pesimistic batteries and come back with more resolve to turn this country into the New Sweden. On top of that you can do it knowing George Bush will not stop fighting for your security in the world - even if you don't like him.

Ah yes, the "love it or leave it" argument. I'm amazed people still think this way.
