‘Faith’ is complete trust or confidence in something. You have ‘faith’ in issues that are conclusively settled up herenow.
Instead, I have concrete knowledge that the issues which are conclusively settled up herenow thanks to validated herenow scientific facts and evidence, are herenow true to me😵

Originally posted by @dj2beckerThis assumption of yours is false; not only you read not the posts of your interlocutors carefully, but you also fail to understand the meaning of the words "knowledge" and "herenow". The knowledge of mine is strictly provisional, and there is no "faith" by my side😵

There is the Casimir effect
Just showing this effect to give you an idea of the statistical nature of matter, .
Which is what I was trying to explain to dj2becker.
There is not 100% certainty the pen hits the floor.
But he cannot understand that so he dismisses it.

You do not have complete certainty that the moment you drop your pen it will fall to the ground?
If you do you are wrong.
Are you beginning to understand?

If you are up in the ISS, the pen floats.
You see, science claims are provisional.

Originally posted by @dj2beckerCertainty is a state of mind. It is possible to have 100% certainty of something, and be wrong.

So you can be 100% certain that ‘it is possible to have 100% certainty of something, and be wrong’, and be wrong about that?
Interpretation A:
So you can be 100% certain that ‘it is possible to have 100% certainty of something, and be wrong’, and be wrong about having 100% certainty.?
Interpretation B:
So you can be 100% certain that ‘it is possible to have 100% certainty of something, and be wrong’, and be wrong about it being possible?
Other interpretations may be possible, or not.

Ok let's test this. Are you 100% certain of your gender?
You have heard the term 'hermaphrodite'? Both gender parts in one person.
You have heard the term 'transgender'? You can say with confidence THOSE folks will say they are 100% sure they are NOT the gender they were born with.
