And we all know that second hand sources can prove to be unreliable. As long as someone labels it as science, it must be true, right? Because what something else says is science can never lie to you, right?

I don't even know how to approach this one.
You could go to school and educate yourself on how to understand the scientific process behind something so that you could duplicate it and come out with the same result.
You sound (for example!) like an illiterate person claiming all readers are liars because they have ~secret word knowledge~ so they must be lying to you because you don't have the education to understand it for yourself. Quite weird.
If you are so skeptical about the process
educate yourself, experiment for yourself and see what answers you come up with. It's not a big secret you cannot pursue. There is no secret brotherhood preventing you from going to college and keeping you ignorant. If you refuse to pursue a scientific education that's on you.
