"@<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIOGUYOPAsA&amp;t=56m12s"">56:12</a> Dr. Battacharya:"...the science says here's what's true..."  No", even that framing isn't careful enough.  If you are being strictly Popperian, then all you can say is "not yet disproven".  Hardly anyone can bear living in that world, so we make the Kuhnian concession and say "the preponderance of evidence supports this, this is true enough".  But we can never forget that "true enough" only means "has usefully predictive power over some parameter space" and that the reality is that the theory - even a physical Law - is actually still "not yet disproven".  I am frequently guilty of the same slip of the tongue myself, and an occasional reminder is needed to keep me on the "narrow way".<br><br>Science is a method of inquiry which helps us to guard against our biases while providing approximations to the nature of things, hopefully each one nearer the true nature of things than the last, though science is littered with dead ends and failed theories (viz. string theory).  Science for darned sure isn't Dr. Anthony Fauci.  I know I'm offering homiletics to choristers here, but I feel compelled to emphasize the point.,(reply>), Thank you for that.. Never heard it explained so simply
