    Truth
    In Our Time
    Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss philosophical approaches to truth.

    What’s did that discussion have to do with this discussion, “Proof that science can’t prove anything?”  ??

    I didn’t hear it, perhaps you can give me something specific, time references are always appreciated.

    Oh and what about HONESTY?  What about misrepresenting that facts others have collected?

    But back on point:

    Holmes let me ask if you can acknowledge that science isn’t about absolutely proving things?

    Or would you disagree with a statement such as:

    Science is about understanding things as thoroughly as possible, always knowing there is more to be learned and that our understanding will evolve with more information.

    How would you rephrase that?
