It (uncertainty principle) regards that humans can't hold absolute positions...
You comment does not alter my above statement of science...
Incorrect.

Incorrect.
If anyone could observe events with total/absolute accuracy, that person would probably get nobel prize.
So, as far as uncertainty principle goes, my above quote is scientifically sound.
And yes, science does not show anything correct/true/absolute.

Except, philosophy is not an event. You're making a category error here, applying a scientific principle to a non-scientific domain.

Even if someone could observe anything with absolute accuracy, there'd be no way to demonstrate the fact that it is so.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

As far as science goes, philosophy is yet another measurable thing, that is not outside of human observation/measurement
Human observation/measurement is non-absolute, for any event, as far as science prescribes..

You're not thinking this through, as evidenced by the fact that you're [fallaciously, as shown above] appealing to the Uncertainty Principle in defending the certainty of your own point. Color me unimpressed. If your human observation is non-absolute, then you should probably quit speaking in absolutes, Jordie.
Have you watered those hydrangeas like I had asked?

Philosophy is measurable? How exactly do you measure abstract concepts? The whole point is they don't literally exist in the same way as physicals objects.
How would you measure logic? Or scepticism? Or naturalism?

I've got a bullshit detector I'd like to sell you, Rob, my friend. Affordable payments, interest-free for the first twelve months.
Also, I've decided I like all the stars in the title. It makes the thread pretty, like a third-grade girl's hand-drawn card.

Throw in a couple of Internets, and we've got a deal!
