10 Absolute Truths You Can’t Deny

List 10 things you know to be absolutely certain.

  1. Mathematical truths: Concepts like a2+b2=c2 for a right angled triangle. The Pythagorean theorem, and other mathematical principles are considered absolute truths within the framework of mathematics.
  2. Law of gravity: Gravity is a fundamental force that governs the attraction between objects with mass. Its existence and effects are observable and measurable.
  3. Causality: The principle that every event has a cause is a fundamental assumption underlying much of science and philosophy.
  4. Identity principles: The principle of identity (A is A) and the principle of non-contradiction (A cannot be both A and not-A at the same time and in the same respect) are basic laws of logic.
  5. Existence of consciousness: The fact that we experience thoughts, feelings, and perceptions (consciousness) is certain to each individual.
  6. Basic moral truths: Certain moral principles, such as “murder is wrong” or “helping others is good,” are considered fundamental by many ethical theories.
  7. Historical events: Some historical events, such as World War II or the moon landing, are well-documented and accepted as having occurred.
  8. Physical laws: Laws of thermodynamics, laws of motion (like Newton’s laws), and other physical laws are consistent and observable in our universe.
  9. Geometric principles: Basic geometric truths, such as the properties of shapes and angles, are demonstrable and agreed upon in mathematics.
  10. Personal experiences: Each person’s subjective experiences and sensations are certain to them, even though they may not be directly verifiable by others.

These are some examples of things that are generally considered certain or absolute, either through direct observation, logical reasoning, or widespread agreement among experts in relevant fields.
