    Like water always filling it's container and the surface being flat, in our reality?

    Not really you live your life accepting many things you have not personally proved are true. You are just re-inventing empirical evidence pretending that every scientist tests everything they believe, rejecting the documentation of all others. It is not the definition of fact , It's just pretend mate where you dismiss anything that contradicts your belief. You believe in the idea of a flat earth, not the reality of it.

    It's called objective reality. If someone makes a claim that something is true, then I should be able to observe it, test it, repeat it, measure it.

    No I know the earth is flat.

    I'll put this here again:



    As opposed to empirical sciences (natural and social), the formal sciences do not involve empirical procedures. They also do not presuppose knowledge of contingent facts, or describe the real world...Formal science is a method that is helpful to science but cannot replace science

    The Twain quote I posted is accredited to him, although there is no proof he made it (like I say, much of our history has anomalies), doesn't detract from the truth of the quote tho.

    So you don't understand the physics of water? All you have to do is provide a physical, practical demonstration of a standing body of water conforming to the exterior of a shape to prove your belief true.
