I try to always see an alternative to the proposition being presented as a given and trust no one, my self included.
AND even when somewhat convinced the propostion is reality I leave open the possibility some fundamental fact has been twisted by perception.
Building a reality with all the information that is available is difficult and even with an absolute reliance on science it can be difficult to fit it all together....using only good stuff
But the blessing of science is it can give us a more certain grasp on reality.
