Apparently, a certain segment of Twitter now thinks that I've "become a complete hack." Well, better that than an incomplete hack, right?

You should take this seriously, David. Your rep has taken a hit. A lot of people respect your opinions. Perhaps not so much now.

Replying to @md_wallach @ScienceIsTruth
Excellent point. His handle has always grated on me. Science is not "truth." It is a system for getting closer to the "truth." Anyone who proclaims science to be truth does not understand science and provides grist for anti-science activists to accuse us of "scientism."

Your arrogance is what grates on me. Science is the truth as we know it. I'm surprised you don't understand that, David. I suspect you do but you are nitpicking in an effort to show your superiority. Go ahead, have your fun. I've come to see that picking on people is what you do.

No, science is a SYSTEM for approximating the "truth." If science itself were the Truth, then it would, as
@daraobriain would put it, stop.

I'd also add: It's FAR more arrogant to portray science as the truth than it is to recognize science's limitations.
