We are still in the process of understanding the universe. I agree.
Which is still pretty amazing right. The fact that we built all of these tools to analyze and elucidate theories, I mean, as an organized species. Impossible as an individual conquest.
I like your comment above though, it stings that the hard reality is that with the alleged intellectual prowess and the organizational processes of human efforts, we still fall flat on our faces, in attempts to solve the simplest problems. This reminds me of the fact the scientific navel-gazing is somehow imbued with the very problems it sets out to solve.
Perhaps the problem humanity and the scientific community has is, it does not err on the side of caution and often finds itself self-correcting after years of collective 'uncommon sense'.

I think that's right, but also that science reporting strips away all of the cautions and caveats that scientists themselves would probably give.

That's something I hadn't really considered when I was thinking just there. Most likely very important point that's under looked. I feel the kind of 'follow the science' political slogans to be somewhat dogmatic, and obviously this this is part of the lack of scientific rigor in the reporting, or emphasis in the wrong places.
