Science doesn't serve anybody's purpose except its own. It can not "prove" a man-made point unless that point happens to be in compliance with nature. Religion is a socio-political matter, has absolutely nothing to do with examining the world and making predictions of its behaviors based on models and theorems, and is more about control and/or spirituality than it is about seeking knowledge of our world and its inhabitants. There is no purpose to this discussion, except as it is relevant in Hollywood films where "mad scientists" make great entertainment.
windowsME: "Every scientific experiment has a scientist who is a human being running it - therefore every experiment, finding, or whatever you'd like to plug in has a very high probability of being biased by the person in interpretation of results, or prior to the setting up of the experiment."
If an experiment is not reproducable, the results of the initial experiment may be brought into question. Moreover, any papers submitted to scientific journals are peer-reviewed prior to publication. Evidence is examined and then re-examined time and time again. The funny thing is, every scientist will have his preconceptions, but every scientists' preconceptions will be different. It is not necessary to consider bias, because whatever bias was present had been long rooted out by the sheer numbers attempting to reproduce the initial experiment, or in reviewing the findings.
Piltdown Man is a perfect example of science going back to review past evidence, even though the discovery was heralded some 40 years prior by primarily British scientists as the pinnacle missing link, scientists in the 1950s still felt it necessary to give Piltdown real scrutiny, given how technology had advanced so much by that time. Hence the grand hoax was revealed.
I doubt, given the state of today's technology, it would be simple to reproduce a hoax as successful as Piltdown, and Piltdown indeed played on the preconceptions of many scientists at the moment of its discovery. That is, admittedly, what made it so attractive a find. However, later geographical evidence and microscopic examination revealed that Piltdown could never have been.

Yeah. . . um, you have been watching far too many movies.
