> things that may be true or false, but no study has shown conclusive evidence either way
Ah, like most of history...
"We are sorry for the inconvenience, but we currently lack objective sensors to send back in time and gather data for an evidence-based approach. We regret to inform you that our history department will be closing after critical objectivity is reached on our campus, anticipated in September of..."
...never. Subjectivity is a natural law, it's universal to the experience of the life form. Objectivity in science is a code name for "measurements that facilitate social bond-building" and while this has its place, the other subjective, theory-generating, guessing-supposing-believing half of our reality cannot be repressed if the results are to be qualitatively "good." We need to become comfortable with, or simply continue to develop as best we can, the deeply organic and chaotic question of quality if we are to evolve beyond current objective limitations. Until then, even "hard science" when pushed to drive out all subjectivity will continue to be filled with scandal, the dark appearance of the subjective realm. The best we know of good must be taught or the repressed spectre will spring us right back to the worst kind of jihad, it will continue to give us the physicists who joined Aum, etc.
