Two wrongs don't make a right. Science is not the "end all" of knowledge. History has shown a lot of garbage to come out of science. Science is not perfect, and it often gets the wrong answer. Even the scientific method assumes that any answer or theory may be overturned by later findings, etc. Evolution is just a guess. Pure and simple.

*Sigh* It’s not Just a guess. It is a theory backed by evidence. There’s plenty out there, you know.

Science never claims to be perfect, but it does have methods for filtering out much of the real garbage.

Again, what is your suggestion for a better means of gaining knowledge of the world?

Yes, one of the positive features of the scientific method is that science it is capable of self-correction.
