Science is an Ever-Improving Approximation of Reality

About this episode

The episode discusses the limitations of science as an approximation of truth and its implications for understanding reality.

This is a snippet from my Wednesday 29/4 episode, If Science Isn't Ultimate, How Should We Use It?
