Maybe an ultimate and absolute truth does not exist, or does not exist
as we want it to be...idealistic.
Scientific minds do not look after such a ghost. They have learned
along the way, specially since the last century that what can be
called "reality" is not static, they have realized there is no more
border between matter and energy (event dark energy...), that our
world (as far as we can perceived it) is a never-ending movement.
The Standard Model is now very much challenged, and the next LHC
(Large Hadron Collider) which is entering into service this quarter
will bring new discoveries which may annihilate previous models, or
better will give new basis for new hypothesis.
At least, we should recognize that scientific minds (the true ones)
have no issues in acknowledging their failures when new findings tear
their model apart. One could have expected the same honesty in other
domains.

An interesting development since the coming of the 70' scientific
generation (F. Capra,...) is that they have stopped claiming (not all
of them) to be able to explain everything with experiences and models,
they became a little bit more modest.
