This quote by @richarddmorey really exemplifies why when some scientists say "science is the search for truth" I roll my eyes.

Yeah, I can't even type it without quotes. Scientific "truth" is a difficult idea.

I find it shocking it's a widespread idea, but then again there is a huge resurgence in scientism and logical/empirical positivism so no real surprises!
