Physicists are the biggest hypocrites in science.

I can’t help but to think that physicists are the biggest hypocrites in the theory of relativity. I presume that in the meantime, we, cultures and science dominated by Western concepts have come to terms that there’s simply nothing in this world that is true or right. In fact, this world is completely chaotic.
Hasn’t physics provided us the most persuasive evidence on this chaotic manner? Matter can be considered as energy, space can be bent and even time is supposed to be relative. But why the hell did we need to resort to such an unworldly field of examination in the first place to come up with this conclusion? Why should anyone in his right mind care more about tiny spots in the firmament and invisibly small particles than urgent political, social, economic, medical or psychological problems? There can be only one reason to that: For millennia, people have looked up to the sky and in things beyond visibility to find the “divine” system beyond this chaotic and relative world. Therefore, what makes physicists chose their field of work in the first place is scepticism if not mere ignorance about that the fact of relativity which might be pretty commonly known, but difficult to understand all the more. It’s like they need to make another absurd experiment to convince themselves of the arbitrariness of their systems in order to proudly present that they have confirmed relativity. But still in this case, they can feel to have given “better proof” as physics are supposed to be the ultimate, respectively most fundamental field of scientific research. Even though they must conclude with the same relativity like in other fields of sciences, they can still comfort or even flatter themselves of having made this conclusion on a more basic object of investigation. Hunting for and showing off with the “most basic” evidence on relativity – now that’s what I call a hypocrite.
