What may not yet constitute facts or “science" to the general population may be considered facts by the relative few whose experience or awareness allows them to be able to resolve them from what can appear as chaos. In other words facts, like everything else, (especially in the soft sciences) are often discovered over time. They emerge.
Another way of saying this is the concept of what constitutes a fact itself changes. What once were not considered facts gradually come to be considered
facts, and vice versa. What once were considered facts may be perceived differently over time and finally seen as not factual at all or as incomplete truths. |
