Now find a definition of 'fact'. Also suggest finding an authoritative source on the difference between fact and opinion.
fact
/fakt/
Learn to pronounce
noun
a thing that is known or proved to be true.
"he ignores some historical and economic facts"

Known or proved, not known and proved.

What would you consider an authoritative source? Philosophers of science?

I think you'll have a hard time finding a resource to back your claim of facts not being falsifiable. It is the thing that makes a fact a fact.
Find a experiment that could falsify 1 + 1 = 2. Even Popper made exceptions for the inability to falsify mathematical statements.

Again, you're allowing definitions to control your perception of reality, rather than the other way around.
 
Every source and article you have posted is big pharm funded or the bill & melinda gates foundation. These are criminal cartels and mafias. Just accept the fact you have been duped played and tricked. The only disinformation in this thread has been blindly parroted by yes men like you. Sellouts enemy to the people. Murderous criminal machine supporters.
The VAERS database you just linked to is funded by taxes on the pharmacological companies and run the government you claim is keeping things secret.

You have nothing but slander and disinformation, stacked up by trying to prey on people's ignorance. We're all onto the game here. You haven't uncovered some secret cabal, you're not part of the chosen. you've been manipulated into feeling an exaggerated sense of importance.

Go do something that really matters. Give money to a homeless person, tell someone you love them, teach a child something new. You can really be important doing these things. Spreading the lies of the quacks and charlatans of the world only diminishes you.

The capacity for proving 1+1=2 as being true or false is contained in the Principia Mathematica proof.


Known or proved, not known and proved.
I'm going to need you to expand on that thought to understand what you are saying. Please give me an example of a thing that is known true but not proved true.

You just pushed it off a level. Can you find a falsification for the method of logic used in Principia Mathematica?

Anything that is proven true is not falsifiable.

For your example, I offer any scientific theory you can name. Known true, but only because it is the best explanation of the available evidence, and all are unproven.

It is a 360 page proof. Are you asking me to prove the proof? I don't get what you are driving at.

Falsifiability describes the capability to use evidence to conclusively prove or disprove a thing. I think we've got a miscommunication over this word that isn't important to the broader point of what differentiates opinion from fact. Let's go back to opinion versus fact.

For your example, I offer any scientific theory you can name. Known true, but only because it is the best explanation of the available evidence, and all are unproven.
Scientific theories are not scientific fact. The best explanation of the available evidence is typically called the null hypothesis. It isn't called scientific fact. Being considered scientific fact is a very high bar. Even ideas with a truly massive amount of evidence in support with no evidence against, such as Einstein's Special and General Relativity, are still not considered fact by PhD physicists.

As I said above, to get this back on track I think we should concentrate on how to distinguish fact from opinion. To be absolutely clear I don't intend this as a slight toward you but I am shocked at how confused our culture has made opinions and facts. When I googled 'opinion vs fact' all of the top results were from colleges. I hadn't thought this was college level stuff. That said, if you research opinion versus fact I think it will be clear where moral values fall.

Just a friendly reminder now that even the WHO is saying the lab theory is just as credible as the animal that was never found and a worldwide virus just magically apeared .435 miles away from the lab theory...

Funder of said research... The guy who literally hid information that it could be lab leaked from day one for whatever reason.

I'm actually pretty familiar with the proof.

What I'm getting at is that all mathematical proofs are based on assumptions that are declared to be obviously, reasoned at by methods that are declared to obvious, but there is not evidence that these assumptions and methods are true.

More precisely, to whether everything that is not fact must therefore be an opinion, such as with th estatement you made, "Moral values are opinions. They cannot be falsified."

Fact is actually a very low bar in science. You see a piece of metal on a twisted wire move 1 degree, and that is a fact. The reading of 3.0 of a voltage meter is a fact. Facts are ordinary, everyday occurrences.



Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts do not go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's, but apples did not suspend themselves in mid-air, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from apelike ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other, yet to be discovered.

I think it's pretty clear moral values are neither opinion nor fact. Part of your error is assuming opinion and fact form a partition over the class of all statements.
