I’ve found amongst many philosopher types that there can be a distinct hesitation when they are asked to state something as fact. Too many people try and slide around equivocating words and such. Please use this thread to state something that you consider to be a fact. Whether or not it’s simply something that you hold to be true, or something that you are willing to defend is irrelevant. Just state a fact, then support it if you wish.
I say that:
There are things that we can observe and things that we cannot. There is a set of rules or principles which are discovered, not constructed and are applicable universally to both. We can ascertain the causal relations between the observable and the unobservable via a proper understanding of these principles and by this apply the resulting knowledge to our individual goals and strategies or personal endeavors.
FACT!!!
You have started a thread.
FACT???OMGWTFROFL
i.e. within the confines of this thread it is meaningless to deny the existence of this thread.
Here is a fact:
If, after having taken at least four showers, you do not remember to point the shower head down before you turn the handle that stops the water flow from the spigot and directs it to the shower head, and the freezing cold water, having sat in the pipes over night, shoots you in the face as you shriek and jump back, you are either an idiot or a masochist.
Lies… One could be a schizophrenic operating under a delusion that they must do whatever detrop says or else the Easter bunnies will come looking for them. You’re at ILP man. One never knows, never knows… That’s a fact. 
A real fact? As opposed to a fake one?
It rained sometime before you read this sentence.
Proof: If you know what rain is, then you cannot deny the soundness of my sentence.
Proof 2: If you know what rain is, but have never seen rain, then you arid Saharan bastard, I don’t know what to tell you. In fact, can someone finish my sentence? My head hurts from colinsign’s Headache.
My next poem shall be entitled Tylenol. And if it’s social medicine, that might even appease siatd, hover a post above me. Or is he now below me? One of them is a fact.
Fact. A = A

I’ve got a fact for y’all…
Two years ago today, Maynard James Keenan pulled an April Fool’s joke on his fans and friends claiming he had “found jesus” and that he was abandoning the work on the Tool album that later became 10,000 Days. Confirmation by Kurt Loder of MTV revealed it was a joke, which was probably inspired by Brian “Head” Welch’s decision to leave the band Korn and dedicate his life to Christianity. Keenan was quoted calling Jesus “a punk”. 
Anyone else?
Isn’t Kurt Loder like 70 now?
Oh, and a fact: I live in Maine. Pretty simple!
If you attack a population, the majority will wish to attack you in return … and will work tirelessly to promote attacks upon you … and will overwhelm any indigenous movement that calls for temperance.
Or, more simply:
“Violence begets violence …”
Your body may live in Maine but, where is the rest of you?
Factually; A fact can have facts or a fact, it cannot factually produce facts if facts are not facts, a fact is not facts but only factually fact. Is a Faction a fact or misspelled fraction?
Fact: I couldn’t think of anything clever to say.
Fact: I felt the need to speak anyway.
Fact: I’m a poet and I didn’t even know it.
Fact: Or something.
Facts are BORING by themselvs. -FACT
Facts are good to support an argument. Otherwise, there boring and useless.
Fact
- the United “states” are actually not states at all! Thanks to the FEDERAL GOVERMENT!!! fuck the feds!
2.A state is an organized political community occupying a definite territory, having an organized government, and possessing internal and external sovereignty. Recognition of the state’s claim to independence by other states, enabling it to enter into international agreements, is often important to the establishment of its statehood.
