Now, for the part you do not understand. Fact is truth. It doesn't change. :doh:
so, if a fact is truth, and a scientific theory is a fact (as far as we know) then you are saying that a scientific theory is truth! Well Done! I knew we'd get there eventually.

This one's not too bright Jimmy. :doh: So, using your example of smells transmitting disease, you are saying that 100 years ago it would have been a fact and today it is not a fact. Good thing you aren't trying to be serious because if you were.... well, ya.

Pretty much, yes, in a scientific sense. This is what you don't seem to grasp. wikipedia defines it thus:
Quote:
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that is acquired through the scientific method and repeatedly tested and confirmed through observation and experimentation.
So, it is a fact 'as far as we know'. The only reason we use the term 'theory' is that we are being realistic enough to see that there may be information available in the future that means a test/observation or experiment shows some flaw in the theory; at that point the theory is either thrown in teh bin or, more likely modified to take into account that new information - and so, to all intents and purposes, becomes fact. what part of this do you fail to understand - because I am sure it has been explained to you many times before

not worth it - Ryan believes fossils were planted by some alien and all humans lived on another planet before deciding to pop down to Earth (I apologise unreservedly if I have misunderstood his previous posts). he argues that because you can't prove something to be untrue, it's reasonable to believe it Next he'll be saying that VB 6 is a great programming language and Silverlight is the way of the future!

You are truly dumb to say such stupid things. :doh: Or, just an average troll. You decide. And you're a gay communist who believes tinfoil hats protect you from Martians so what value is your opinion anyway? You believe that all life began in Australia and that one day Australians will rule the whole world. Quite delusional are you.

The master of the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which; he simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both.
There was a note that Sex Education instruction was replaced with Yoga. Mmmmmmm . . . that just brings on fantasies . . .

i don't believe there are martians - and those aliens that are out there do not appear to be any sort of threat, so not protection required.

As valuable as any other, less valuable than some, more valuable than others.

Don't be ridiculous! Australia wasn't even Australia when life began - and it began in the sea anyway, while most of what is now Australia was still above teh water.

Just possibly.

OK - just in case your IQ genuinely is as small as it appears to be: At any moment in time and space there are things that are known. With the knowledge available at that point in time and space, there are things that will be called facts, truths, whatever. At a different point in time and space those things will be "known" to be wrong in some way. Even were one to live until the end of time, the things that one "knew" would still not necessarily be universal 'facts' - which is the sort of fact you are waffling on about in your naive manner - but they would be thought of, and referred to, as fact. So yes, facts change. now, if you want to use a definition of the word 'fact' to mean a universal, unchanging absolute, then by definition, it cannot change - but that's simply arguing definitions of words.. My Google-fu tells me that a fact is
Quote:
a thing that is known or proved to be true.
well, both known and proved imply an observer, so any fact is interpreted by that observer, and so changing observers, or changing interpretations by the same observer would lead to a change in a fact. QED, old bean, QED

First be respectful, I take issues with the title Before you dismiss his claims as rubbish, I say just read the citations he has given. And have you read the book? The blog you refer exaggerates a few things so that they seem more hypothetical. And about Mahabharat, we can give you date, time, month, year, position of planets tc in precision. You can use software and verify yourself. And just visit Kurukhetra, if you want even more first hand experience. Vedas are no hypothetical. Just read the version by dayanand saraswati Another great example is "Vedic Mathematics" (ISBN:978-8120801646), There is just one part, rest could not be published due to his death. Vedas did contain advanced geometry and calculus, thousand of years before Euler, Newton and others. If I continue I won't stop. But before you speak, be sure you know the whole of the matter.

No it wasn't. And won't be. It was some howling old fags X| , who think all will learn on their own like they did, back in there times when there were no schools X| X| Religious fanatics saying contraception is murder and else. Hook up, get pregnant, coz that's God's gift! Yoga was included as physical activity (the right category) but not to replace sex education.

You need to get more in line with the context of things in The SoapBox (and The Lounge). The second part of the comment, about bringing on fantasies, should have tipped you off.
