So when the past is reconstructed, science infers the best explanation. This explanation isn't always the same thing as the truth.
Truth: This is a word best avoided entirely in physics [and science] except when placed in quotes, or with careful qualification. Its colloquial use has so many shades of meaning from ‘it seems to be correct’ to the absolute truths claimed by religion, that it’s use causes nothing but misunderstanding. Someone once said "Science seeks proximate (approximate) truths." Others speak of provisional or tentative truths. Certainly science claims no final or absolute truths. Source
So you go ahead and find truth, Truth, TRUTH, and even TRVTH. Proclaim it from the soapboxes, pulpits and rooftops.
But watch out for the tens of thousands of other sects, denominations, and religions that claim that
they and they alone have the one true truth, Truth, TRUTH, and TRVTH. (Is this any way to run a universe?)
Thanks, but no thanks. I'll stick to science and the pretty good explanations that science provides.
Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.
