but if truth is simply a matter of correspondence, then the search for it necessarily involves you in a loop---you find what you are looking for--and this bypasses the atheist/theist divide and cuts more to the question of what "scientific knowledge" is--btw i think there are only regions of scientific knowledge and no Scientific Knowledge in general--this rests on the same claim about truth as correspondence.

you see the notion of truth as correspondence in the design of any experiment.
