You never considered the fact that I love to abuse language, did you?

You abused the word science pretty badly there. Science has never been about finding absolute natural truths, its been about finding the best explanations for natural phenomenon with the available data.

My old high school physics teacher once said that science only deals with "what is false and not false."

True, but in order for science to have any meaning, we must at least accept that there is some absolute truth - otherwise, it would all become meaningless.
