“It says here in this history book that luckily, the good guys have won every single time. What are the odds?" - Norm MacDonald
The sciences are simply an agreed upon set of hypotheses up until proven otherwise. So, a “story” made up that fits what is currently observable. Advances in measurement devices yield new hypotheses, rinse, repeat.
Literature - self explanatory.
The arts and shop are likely the only exceptions but we’re talking about sitting & listening to a lecture.
