[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 963098, member: 60724"] Hugh, I'm not debating whether or not what you are postulating will or won't come true. I'm just pointing out that these things that you are calling facts, by the very definition of the word "fact" are not facts at all. Something that has not yet come to pass is not a fact. That is just the way it is. That, is a good example of a fact. A forecast for rain tomorrow is not a fact. It is a forecast of something that might happen. If and once it rains tomorrow, then that rain will be a fact. Believing that something will happen, which is what you are describing, is speculation. It is a belief of what will happen. It may in fact prove to be true, but until it happens, it is not a fact. BTW, what I am saying has absolutely nothing to do with your argument or what you feel is likely to happen in the future. Again, i am simply pointing out your misuse of the term "fact." I am not sure I can explain this any more clearly. I am beginning to think you simply are unwilling to see things reasonably.
