The Facts are wrong

Its under a theory called "Terms for Order" and it states that almost all information you have it second hand information.
..
Another theory called "Terministic Screens" states that: terms chosen change perspective, and every word choice makes a significant difference.

In our society we value "facts" very highly.
Which makes sense since they seem to be solid and grounded in through testing.
But facts change quite frequently.
Often one former "fact" is replaced with a better and more solid "fact".
I know the Earth is round.
I know this because I trust others.
My trust in others is faith that they have obtained this from a true source.
I have faith the Earth is round.
But first-hand I have no knowledge of this.
...
I ask you SP. How do you feel about ALL of your information coming second hand?
Stand on a tall building and look out over the horizon. You don't have to be very high up to see the curvature of the earth.
