It hit me today that we all get uncomfortable with truths when they greatly defy our expectations. We see this manifest both in the Church and in Science. In the church is seen in legalism and in despair. In science we see it in Darwinism and in pseudoscience. I'll be clear; science isn't about truth, but validity. However, many seek truth from science and validity is the closest (but insufficient) substitute for truth.
The most common truth that makes me uncomfortable is the pain of others. I want to deny people hurt as much as they do. I want to think I can fix pain. May God help me accept truth.
