@868d9200: I understand your point. While scientific facts are based on empirical evidence and are subject to revision as new evidence emerges, they are still the best available understanding of the natural world based on the current scientific knowledge. Therefore, it might be more accurate to say that scientific facts are the best available understanding of the natural world based on the current scientific knowledge rather than absolute truths that can never be challenged or revised.
