    Claiming science tells truth demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of the scientific method. At what point in this method is truth established?

    Yes, the scientific method has been incrementally enhancing our understanding of the physical universe since about the 17th century, and there's some well tested hypotheses that are almost universally accepted, but there's always the possibility of further observation turning that upside down. The classic example is Newton's laws of motion being superseded by Einstein's relativity.
