I think SCIENCE is possibly the only profession/field in which participants are on a constant quest to find the TRUTH. Is it?

Of what value to you is TRUTH? Some professions are filled with liars. The better you are at being a LIAR the more successful you are. In Science the liars are outed and routed and vilified. In politics the liars are embraced and supported and beloved and elected to office. Go figger!  :(
