Well that makes life easier because now I know that the entire Iraq thing has got to be a hoax. Because Iraq does not exist. Nor Saddam. I wonder wheer they are actually sending our troops?? Kansas?? i know kansas exists because i have been there.
I never said the moon landing never took place!

I asked the question, who thinks the moon landing took place or who thinks it's a hoax.

It may of actually taken place!

I believe theirs a planet called Pluto, even though iv'e never seen it!

I am willing to accept that there may not be a planet called pluto if somone presents proof that it dosn't exist!

My point here, is that there is a difference between shared knowledge i.e. the fact that 1 + 1 = 2, and personal knowledge, otherwise known as personal experience or BELIEF'S.

FACTS are not interchangeable with BELIEF'S.

Some people believe jesus will return in 'a second coming'.

I do not share this beleif.

The people who hold the beleif that jesus will come again, will swear that it's a FACT!

is it a FACT?
