Having grown up among scientists, especially physicists, my
experience is that they´d disagree. After all, scientific method is
all about disagreeing and discussing and testing the differences.
Quantum mechanics have, however, shown us that the viewer in fact has
an effect on the things he watches, at least on the quantum level.
Fractal geometry has shown as that even simple equations (like
Newtons third law) on the macro level, without taking Heisenberg into
account, sometimes give unpredictable results.
So, if anything, scientist know that there is a limit to what we can
know, and observe, of an objective truth.
You could say that the rest is a matter of faith .-)

At the macro level every scientist I have ever heard of says so.
Now if you live at the quantum level things might be different.
Most of us are a lot bigger than an atom, and atoms are at the
macro level. However in all probability there is an underlying
reality at the quantum level, however we do not truely understand
what it is (yet).

Not all modern scientists claim, or believe, that.
