1+1 = 2 Its not debatable. Atoms are 90% empty space Thats debatable. You wont fall through the floor just because the empty spaces lined up. Millions of years of people not falling through the floor have made this a fact. Its not debatable. Some things are fact. Debating fact is for bad sci-fi writers. Edit: stupid me i took the bait. Troll post is haunted by a troll

  • [quote]Debating fact is for bad sci-fi writers.[/quote] The world was once considered to be flat. That's a fact. The earth is the center of the solar system. Another thing that was once a fact. Gays are posted by demons. Yet another fact.

  • Some people think that 1 loaf of bread + 1 fish = enough food to feed 1000 people is fact. Scientifically speaking facts are indisputable. Alot of things people call facts are actually theories, like gravity. Facts however are based on proof, something the flat earth society has never had. Oh and the belief that people as recently as Columbus believed the world is flat is wrong. It is a fact the even the anchient Egyptians knew the world was round. Long before such Knowlage actually mattered. Again, debating scientific facts is for bad sci-fi writers like the founders of the flat earth society

  • [quote]Some people think that 1 loaf of bread + 1 fish = enough food to feed 1000 people is fact.[/quote] Irrelevant statement [quote]Scientifically speaking facts are indisputable. Alot of things people call facts are actually theories, like gravity.[/quote] Gravity is a law. Einstein's theory of gravity is a theory [quote]Facts however are based on proof, something the flat earth society has never had.[/quote] Okay so it was once believe that the reason it burns when you work out is because of the release of a certain kind of acidic enzyme in the body that hurt cells. That was a fact that had proof to back it up. That fact has now been disproved because we bow know that it's caused by micro fractures within the cell. Facts change all the time. They are debatable. Literally that's what my post is about. [quote]Oh and the belief that people as recently as Columbus believed the world is flat is wrong. It is a fact the even the anchient Egyptians knew the world was round. Long before such Knowlage actually mattered.[/quote] I hate when people say things that they think I don't know. It doesn't change anything. There are still civilizations in the past that believe earth was flat. [quote]Again, debating scientific facts is for bad sci-fi writers like the founders of the flat earth society[/quote] This statement is just pure ignorance. Scientists find contradicting facts all the time. They spend a lot of time debating facts.

    First newtonian gravity is just a theory with little evidence to support it as even that. Second if you start a statment with "people believe" it is not a scientific fact. Third you dont seem to have a grasp on what proof and fact actually mean. Very little in science is actually supported by enough proof to be called fact. Dont confuse facts and proof for evidence and theories

  • [quote]First newtonian gravity is just a theory with little evidence to support it as even that.[/quote] Gravity is a law. It's nothing more than observation. That in itself is its evidence. [quote]Second if you start a statment with "people believe" it is not a scientific fact.[/quote] No but it was once fact. It starts with people believe because now in hindsight we know that they're wrong. [quote]Third you dont seem to have a grasp on what proof and fact actually mean. Very little in science is actually supported by enough proof to be called fact.[/quote] I don't think you know what a fact is. You're calling facts laws. [quote]Dont confuse facts and proof for evidence and theories[/quote] Again, you're mixing facts and laws. Fact: cells exist According to you they don't because cell theory is well... "just a theory"

  • You have no understanding of scientific terminology and i am not here to teach you. Your arguments are baseless or factually incorrect, and your evidence is non existent. Bad sci-fi writers lol @ u m8
