The golden rule of science is that nothing can be proven! That is science's own application. Science isn't blind to the fact that nothing can be true - only reinforced. If NASA have used Jupiter's magnetic field to catapult a rocket that is low on fuel back to the earth and they managed to get it there in the first place, then there are certain objective truths manifest in those experiments, and in the environment around us. It's no great shakes for a civilisation to reach a consensus on what ought to be right or wrong...it wouldn't be much use to us if we're undecided about whether murder was to be permitted or not is it. Life certainly wouldn't be worth living - it would be frightful.

personally I believe that this 'your own perceptions and reality are right for you,' argument is a lame cop-out. It kinda takes secularism to a new level...a level which noone else has the right, or the mind to intrude upon. isn't life lonely enough as it is?
