The the many branches of the theory of everything and the string theory contradict each other. The String theory itself is based on ideas that can not yet be proven and was formulated to support other theories which we still do not know enough about...

My point is not really that cosmology is bad science, no science is bad science, just that we are not yet advanced enough to understand the universe. If we do not yet truly understand the forces at work and the elements in our own solar system how can we honestly expect to know what is going on with the entire galaxy or the entire universe. Some scientists say the Universe is expanding and will continue to expand, others say that it is finite, some explain the redshift seen in the stars that are farthest from us by saying they are moving away from us at a very fast rate, others say that it is gravity that explains the redshift.

In my opinion instead of making broad theories that we have no chance of proving or disproving we are better to observe what we can about the universe and learn what we can about the forces at work and apply those forces in ways that we may learn to travel to the stars and then truly learn what is happening in the universe.

Of course that is just my opinion. I am sure there are many who will disagree
