It's impossible to prove a theory true in the sciences. If you want that, stick to mathematics.

That person doesn't understand how science works. See above.

As an example: for the longest time Europeans believed there were only white swans. But just because they had only observed white swans didn't mean all swans were white.

Lo and behold, when they discovered Australia, what did they find? Those dastardly black swans!

Just because scientists have always observed x happen doesn't mean that x will continue to always happen.
