Science does not hold any less grey than does Philosophy. It is every generation's folly to believe that our facts are the facts.

- jamesbritt 12y agoIndeed, one of the better aspects of scientific thinking is that everything should be held up to some degree of doubt and not accepted as The Final Truth for All Time. The scientific method offers a best attempt to establish a truth at a given time for some given body of knowledge, but knowledge and understand can change.
- Gertig 12y agoAgreed, when the evidence is overwhelming we can operate as such while always remembering that our knowledge and understanding may be limited or flawed. Having NdGT doing the work he is doing is far better than not because it gives us more opportunity to think.
