How do we know the speed of light? How do we know traveling at the speed of light is impossible? We don't. For the longest time the atom was the smallest possible building block but now we find out it is quarks. How long until we find something smaller than quarks?
If you are asking for concreate proof of anything you might want to stick to I think therefore I am because beyond that nothing is certain.

people believe in science because it doesn't claim to have all the answers. it merely states that it is trying to find the answer that best fits the question. when a new answer is found that fits the question better, the old answer is discarded. as technology advances new information becomes available. this leads to the modification or complete change of theories. this allows us to explain things to best of our abilities based on observable falsifiable information.
creationism/ID doesn't allow that because it has the answer and will more often modify the question to fit the answer.
one is science, the other isn't.
