It's not really reality though - it's just a more precise model. Science can never tell you what is real, only what is unreal. If you fail often enough to prove that something is unreal it becomes the new, generally accepted model.

Once again, I'm not sure that is respectful or helpful.

For someone who advocates in favor of the disuse of racist (in Webster's sense) speech, your own words can be quite impolite. I'm not sure those positions mesh well together.

It wasn't meant to be, it was meant to be funny.
