      I definitely don’t think the same thoughts about what it means for science to be self-correcting (or not) as many seem to. Interesting.

      It's all a bit bizarre when you have people who think science is a search for truth, who think data is not theory-laden, and/or who think testing hypotheses is the same as testing theories.

      I still do think science is a search for truth but just not in the traditional kind of way that you mean here I think. Data is certainly theory-laden.

      It's not a big deal to me if we disagree here. I think science is about understanding, creating models of the world. BUT I don't mind if you believe in theory of forms ala Plato as long as you are direct and as long as you don't enforce a monolithic idea of science on others.

      That was hypothetical, I know you didn't say you believe in Platonic forms. It's just that typically those who say "science is a search for truth" imply one truth and one monolithic prescriptive way of doing science.

          Not sure if this is what Manjari has in mind, or that its incompatible with your perspective Olivia, but I tend think of science as search of truth in the long run & increased understanding in short run. The view I find problematic is that we can/should have truth in short run.

          Thanks, Iris! Yes, I share the long-run view that we still aim for the truth. I would hate to hand that to the short term folks who insist on interpreting every short term scientific product as having discovered "the truth".

          That's sensible.
