I agree, it does seem to be difficult to claim absolute certainty on anything. We have theories that can be tested, repeated, and we can try to prove them false. If, we can't, we call them facts. In the #1 spot of truths, I'd say, we'd have mathmatics in first place very easily, then science in second. I'd like to talk more on this ,but my phone is pissing me off.
Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' -Isaac Asimov-
