Unlike the castle of cards built on uncertainty, a universe built on truth, will stand forever,

Dear MJA,
As for the 1st line of your poem "
The test for truth is the test of measure." Actually, the key term "measure" can be one of the many similar terms: perception, evaluation, human knowledge, logic, mathematics, problem-solving-ability, etc.
You picked up the term "measure" for you to attack that term [measure usually means comparison with standards]. Once no more comparisons, he can beautify difference and confusion as equal/equality.
The 2nd line
"To test the truth of measure, one must ask: Is measure true?" Actually, unnecessary to test the truth of measure, just think: is that method of measure appropriate or still improvable? Then, science progresses!
The 3rd line "Science has found measure untrue, uncertain, relative, and probable at best." Actually, science doesn't use the terms true/untrue/truth, despite in logic, the terms true/false are being employed.
"Science has found measure untrue" is just your personal bias alibi to support yourself. Seldom have other people concluded measure as untrue. Yet science really cautions people that in frontier and extreme cases, things [not just measurements] are more uncertain, relative and probable. Caution is better than blind misconception.
The title of your poem implies that Science is just A Castle Made of Cards.
Seems that you agree that Science builds at least a Castle (despite fragile).
However, those personal assertions of MJA are just laying on the ground (the Oneness Foundation) and theoretically unable to stand up a little bit. The reason is that you fixed yourself on "Everything equals". Your thinking/reasoning ended immediately without anything possible to stand up (which means different to his groundstate foundation).
If everything equals, just one sameness can't build even a Castle [with different parts/ingredients/rooms]. MJA, your key ideas hardly behave as any Cards. They are just empty, just magic empty words when appropriate reasonings are still absent.
