What makes you believe these ones have a sufficient likelihood of being false that you hesitate to believe them? Bear in mind that it's also an assumed truth that gravity will continue to hold you on the ground tomorrow. Are you going to bolt your house and yourself to the ground just in case it doesn't, or are you going to trust in that assumption because you have no reason to suspect it won't? --- This is my signature.

This is very basic stuff. This is based on simple stuff our entire understanding of physics is based on. it is hilarious when someone who devolves to insults questions a persons intelligence i was a straight a student in all subjects just because i maintain a mild level of skepticism doesn't prevent me from understanding the subject matter <cite>potdnewb posted [p:975265987] in Do any of ...
