Science explicitly rejects the idea of revelatory truth. Theology is pretty much okay with the concept. In fact, that's pretty much all they have, since theologians can't even demonstrate that the supposed object of their study even exists.

So even ignoring all the other possible arguments, I'm going to have to reject your foray into Feyerabendianism on those grounds, poke.
