it's neither.
it's a process that USES facts in attempt to understand reality.
most of the time it fails.

Well sure it is process towards FACT or FICTION...

Right?

I think so..yup.
but it's not exactly.
it's a process FROM facts (assertions, axioms, data, observations.. etc) TOWARD a more clear understanding of reality..(theories)

(unless you write fiction...like I do..but I want it to be believable)

@everittdmickey I hear you man...

The day NO one questions "it" there will be NO doubt!
