Truth ???????????????
To You All My theme was to show our science (theories) are not the whole
"truth" The better the theory the closer to the truth. Did not say Einstien's theories of relativity proved Newton wrong. Fact is Newton's laws of motion work very nicely when velocities are small as compared to that of light. SR works better at "c' Newton's law of gravitation works very well when gravitational forces are not to intense. GR works with very strong gravity. Better approximation is the difference. GR cannot be used when one has to consider distances less than about 10-^33 centimeters,or a times less than 10-^43 Best to keep in mind that at such times and distances quantum actions become important(quantum fluctuations). Well I'll keep defending my post of "truth" as long as you remember I'm using "truth" in the sense of obtaining and "exact" understanding of what is happening in nature. The defence does not rest,and will be back. Bert |

The problem may be that what many people relate "truth" to is philosophy, whereas "facts" are related to science. Some would argue that this is merely a semantics argument, but it's truly and factually much more... What really matters is what rings in people's ears! Otherwise, what you SAY (or WRITE) and what they HEAR (or READ) can easily be two different things. happy days and... starry starry nights! -- Be very wary...

Hi Painius Right you are. The new hate mongers that are trying to push
us old timers out do it by complete disagreement. Hard to discuss thoughts on science when they are just showing their Muslin religion and all the bigotry that it stands for. Well getting back to physics and its use of approximation here is a good example. Those that work at the Cern accelerator can only give the best approximation as to the out come of the experiments.

From Painius:
It's good that you defined it, Bert, because what you are obtaining are "facts", not "truth". "Consensus reality" is what defines whatever 'truth' or 'facts' are currently in vogue. Ptolemaic geocentrism was absolute 'fact' to the smartest people of their day. Today the reigning intelligencia's absolute 'truth' is that space is functionally a void. Indeed there is nothing new under the sun. oc |

Hi Painius I used the word "truth" for this post for this reason.
Science is a search for the truth. Bert |

in message ... Hi Painius I used the word "truth" for this post for this reason. Science is a search for the truth. Bert Yes, and science is also so much, much more, Bert. So to continue, science must search for FACTS with which to support an hypothesized "truth". Take Gamow for instance... He searched for an origin for our Universe. And he came up with what was later to be unfortunately named "The Big Bang". Ever since, science has been hard at work searching for FACTS which would support Gamow's hypothesis. And so far, enough FACTS have been found to transform Gamow's hypothesis into a scientific theory--a very strong scientific theory. However, science has learned to be very careful in its search for "truth". Probably the most often cited reason for this is Piltdown Man. Remember Piltdown Man?... http://skepdic.com/piltdown.html Briefly, the "truth" science was looking for was that man's big brain came before everything else... walking upright, eating meat, and especially tool making. And in 1913 they found exactly the FACT that supported this "truth". They found Piltdown Man, a skull with a human cranium and an attached apelike jaw. This "truth", that man's brain had become a modern size BEFORE the other manlike traits came to be, had been so deeply embedded in the minds of anthropologists that it wasn't until forty years later(!) in 1953 that Piltdown Man was exposed as a hoax. That's more than HALF an average lifetime! And since then a whole lot of evidence has been uncovered which are FACTS in support of the "truth" that the big brain of mankind came long *after* bipedalism, carnivorous eating habits and the making of crude tools and, yes, weapons. So yes, science often begins with a philosophical search for "truth", and yet it must always and inevitably reach a point where this search extends to the finding of evidentiary FACTS to be used *in support* of that which is believed to be a searched for and discovered "truth". If being understood is important to you, Bert, then you must always remember... "Truth" is the very general, philosophical idea of reality, and FACTS are the actual pieces of scientific evidence found which can be used either to support or to refute the "truth". happy days and... starry starry nights! -- Twinkle twinkle little star, I don't wonder what you are, What i *really* want to see... Is there someone there like me? http://www.seti.org/ Indelibly yours, Paine http://www.savethechildren.org/ http://www.painellsworth.net/ |
