Make a Statement. I will confirm, debunk, or find the answer.

While it is sometimes opined that Hemingway may have been gay(and that F. Scott Fitzgerald was his...or at least a... lover), there is absolutely no direct evidence that supports this theory (and believe me I looked!). So, without further evidence this remains not a statement of fact.

Um...this sort of depends on what you mean. If you mean a group of laymen going and doing "investigations" with night vision cameras, EMF detectors, and jerry rigged voltmeters then yes I feel comfortable saying that your statement is one of fact.

However, there are Universities which offer degrees in both Parapsychology (the study of mental phenomena that are excluded from or inexplicable by orthodox scientific psychology (such as hypnosis, telepathy, etc.), and Metaphysics (the branch of philosophy that deals with the first principles of things, including abstract concepts such as being, knowing, substance, cause, identity, time, and space). There are several Universities that have "parapsychology" departments (the University of Edinburgh being the most widely known, though they still don't advertise it) though few readily admit to such research grants and facilities by that name. If you count people with those types of degrees, or involvements with those sort of academic backing conducting serious research then I'd feel safe in saying your statement is not factual.

Take your pick! On rare occasions I actually get to have my cake and eat it too!

Cycling is better for endurance and much less presser on you knees then sprinting and jogging.

The existence of white holes isn't real.

Sorry, I meant to include both ghost hunting and parapsychology, but since you said that ghost hunting is pseudo while the parapsychology isn't, I guess my statement is true in some ways and false in others depending on context.

Time flows in a linear manner.

GAWD! Ahem, well unless we try to get into quantum physics, the theory of relativity, the theory of general relativity (which I only recently learned weren't quite the same thing), string theory, and probably other theoretical types of exotic particle theories I've probably never heard of and I'd be lying if I said I understood well enough to explain then...

yes, as far as I know this is a statement of fact :)

@black_panther18:

Cool, then we both get to type away happy!

Santa isn't real.

The universe is infinite

The universe may be infinite, but we can only see a finite section of it due to the finite speed of light. We can only see those parts from which light has had time to reach us since the beginning of the universe - which means we can (in theory) see a spherical universe with radius of about 47 billion light years.

So, according to the best available evidence available, this is a statement of fact.

@heroup2112: James "Rhodey" Rhodes, aka War Machine, was a Vietnam War veteran prior to becoming Tony Stark's sidekick.

I think, therefore I am

Cogito ergo sum is a Latin philosophical proposition by René Descartes usually translated into English as "I think, therefore I am". The phrase originally appeared in French as je pense, donc je suis in his Discourse on the Method, so as to reach a wider audience than Latin would have allowed. It appeared in Latin in his later Principles of Philosophy. As Descartes explained, "[W]e cannot doubt of our existence while we doubt … ." A fuller form, dubito, ergo cogito, ergo sum("I doubt, therefore I think, therefore I am"), aptly captures Descartes' intent.

This proposition became a fundamental element of Western philosophy, as it purported to form a secure foundation for knowledge in the face of radical doubt. While other knowledge could be a figment of imagination, deception, or mistake, Descartes asserted that the very act of doubting one's own existence served—at minimum—as proof of the reality of one's own mind; there must be a thinking entity—in this case the self—for there to be a thought. Wikipedia Link

I subscribe to this theory personally, so as far as a personal philosophy can be considered a "fact" this statement has a well considered and thoughtful support for it to be considered a factual statement.

I wish I could have made this long story short, but there you have it.

I cannot weigh in on the possible mythological/belief system issues such a statement represents BUT...I have an awful feeling someone is getting a big lump of coal in their stocking in December...

This is a statement of fact.

Andy Kaufman Died of lung cancer.

Taskmaster at his peak can defeat any single combatant 1 on 1 if not jibbing and is strictly H2H?

Random Encounter

Thor can hit Zolomon Zoom

@heroup2112: Wally West has returned to the mantle of the Flash in Rebirth.

This is a statement of fact.

@heroup2112: John F. Kennedy was assassinated as a result of a conspiracy.

It is a fact that Andy Kaufman died of lung cancer that also spread to his brain on May 16, 1984.

Unfortunately, this statement is not able to be verified as a fact and is best suited for the Battle Forums.

While conspiracy theories will probably always exist, the preponderance of the evidence, especially from the Warren Commission, supports that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Unless other compelling evidence is found, this statement will have to remain not a fact.

Unfortunately, this is a statement that is subject to debate as well as subject to change dependent on the whims of writers and editors. As such it should best be directed to the Battle Forums.

@heroup2112: Hay man you forgot my question.

Meng Hao is the most shameless Main character in a Er Gen novel.

@heroup2112: This has an objective answer I wish you luck with your googling.

@heroup2112: Sun Tzu's book the Art of War is still very influential in military organizations around the world.

If Pinocchio says "My nose will grow now", his nose will grow forever.

Factual statement.

@thekillerklok: Whoooops, wrong question.

However, on YOUR question.

The only thing I was able to find out is that Meng Hao seems to be "shameless" in his quest for money. In that aspect it would seem that yours is a statement of fact. If you mean something else, I'm afraid I wasn't able to find it out.

I don't remember where I heard this before, but this is a statement of fact.

This is a statement of fact. However, as a point of interest I once had a Lieutenant who thought it was stupid. Dumb ass LT's...I swear.

as always when you fail miserably it's my role to gloat.

my statement was that Meng Hao was the most shameless main character of any of the author's (Er Gen's) novels.

If you were to google the name Er Gen this page is your first result.

all you would of had to do was look at the tags/reviews...

As for the answer Bai Xiaochun... is just a special kind of character that can't be topped.

@heroup2112: Jigsaw (John Kramer) was the most intelligent character in film/cinema ever

Unfortunately, this is a highly subjective statement that cannot be proven as a fact or not. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

@heroup2112: I was just asking for your opinion but I understand where you are coming from

Any opinion? Are you familiar with him? Alot arent

@thekillerklok:

I did look at that page actually, and five others. Unfortunately I missed the character description you're referring to. I'd say I'm sorry I let you down, but giving you the ability to gloat I don't feel TOO bad. ;)

@morleericks: Ah, I can understand you asking my opinion, but I don't tender that in this forum anymore. It's caused too many problems in the past. This thread is simply for things I can research and prove as factual or not.

Yes, I'm familiar with Jigsaw, the villain in the Saw movies. :)

@heroup2112:

Ok new one

Columbine could not have been prevented

Hmmm, this still requires a little supposition, but little enough that I think it's safe enough to predict with enough certainty to call it a fact or not. Based on the fact that if Eric Harris' father had simply looked through Eric's room even a little bit, he'd have found some of the illegal weapons and bomb making materials and that alone could have stopped the boy's attack plot I think it's enough to say that your statement is not a fact.

@heroup2112: The US plans to send the first manned mission to Mars by 2035.

This is a statement of fact. NASA has indeed committed itself to landing a human being on Mars by 2035.

@heroup2112: Teddy Roosevelt actually survived an assassination attempt on his life.

On October 14, 1912 an unemployeed saloon keeper shot former President and shot former president and Progressive Party candidate Theodore Roosevelt in the chest outside a Milwaukee hotel. While the pages of his speech absorbed a lot of the bullets' impact, Roosevelt was in fact still shot in the chest. This did not prevent him from completing his speech however.

This is a statement of fact.
