It's okay. Actually no I'm hardly "hard science" at all, though I read about science. But even modern science has admitted that there are no real facts because the observer has an effect, even if small, on what is observed.

So with the moon example, I would not say the second description is a fact, but rather the current opinion or view or perspective on what the moon might be. Look at my signature. I believe that we actually are quite limited in our knowledge and these type of "facts" have changed granted over centuries, but still have radically altered.

Within a social and emotional and psychological context, it may not be appropriate to apply this type of thinking, which I'm grateful to have pointed out and will take in as good feedback. As some wise people have said, who am I?
