By now we know a fact will remain a fact if it’s undisputed for a lengthy period of time. What we regarded as facts in the yester years, nowadays they no longer hold any grain of truth.
Even some of the truths we hold dear will be discredited in the future as the world advances in terms of science and technology.
For now, can you differentiate which statements are facts and which ones no longer hold any validation? Well, hop in and let’s find out.

Exactly. With only four to go, you did very well.
I look forward to another quiz like this one
Thank you, Alex. It’s around the corner.
that’s what I wanted to hear
An interesting and fun quiz. I only have 9/17

You are always welcome ?

Unfortunately Lena, no. There are between 7 to 14. Some even as far as 21 but the most accepted maximum is 14.
That was a seriously impressive debunking of a great deal of ‘received knowledge’! More like this please 🙂
Thank you, Norman. I will do so. Funny we are still not aware some facts are no longer facts.
Apart from ‘alternative facts’ of course!
Missed a few but this was an interesting quiz.
Thank you Carol DM for playing the quiz.

I think I knew about the first question through a YouTube channel, “Ask A Mortician”. ?
Thanks Sabtraversa for playing the quiz. Not bad. Yah, holding to something as a fact when it’s not is quite ironical I might say.
