Truth is the foundation of all claims and theories

Otherwise you’d have nothing to theorize and make claims about lol

A theory starts with a hypothesis

A hypothesis is the foundation

That’s important

A hypothesis about reality

A hypothesis of what the truth is or isn’t

Some hypothesis can’t be measured without acting them out

Actually all have to be enacted in some way

Something that is true is something that is absolute correct?

You’re right JP

Yes. Truth is the highest standard

True things measure up to the truth

There are no absolutes in science

Untrue things don’t measure up to the truth

Right

What do you mean

Because there’s always a gap between your truth claim and the truth

The truth is higher than your truth claim

Why are you saying truth claim

What do you mean by truth claim

Because that’s the best we can do is make claims of the truth

Gravity isn’t disproven. It’s hardened by many experiments

But it’s still a truth claim

But it’s not absolute

It’s probably true! But it’s still not the truth

Exactly

It’s not absolute. Exactly

That’s why they don’t use the word truth in science

Because nothing is absolute

But in order to test anything, you are aiming at truth

Don’t see what you’re trying to get at

Sure

You just never hit it all the way

You can aim at it

Right so you assume there’s a truth to aim at

Good. We are on the same page there 🙂 but I really have to go. I think I need to close the discord app so I don’t get sucked in haha. Continue later or tomorrow?

Yes I’d like that. Talk to you later

Different use of the word. But I like the meme heh

Yea me too 😛
