Have to point out...
Your room may look like a disaster to you, but would it necessarily look that way to another human? What about a dog?
Also, is the sky blue, or does the sky appear to be blue to YOU? The only reason it appears blue is because that's how our eyes perceive it. What if we were all color blind? Last, how do YOU, personally, know that the Earth is round? Have you seen it from space? Have you traveled in a straight line and ended up back where you started? Or have people and textbooks always said that it's round, so that's what you believe?
Note- I'm not saying these things AREN'T true, just that we should look at what we accept as truth differently...Look up "language as conspiracy"
One die, I will die. That is a fact.
One die, probably soon, my thieving government will take money from me and give it to the feckless and work-shy. This is called taxation. That will definitely happen.
I am sure that religion, is an inherently long, illogical, and overcomplicated way of saying, "I am scared of death".
I am also sure that this post will be quoted, probably by a zealot, shouting about my anti-Semitic comment.
EDIT: I should probably clarify; I don't mean religions are wrong, I just think thats why they were created.

Absolutely nothing.
There is literally nothing that we can be certain about. It makes me feel small and insignificant.

Is that from the 4[sup]th[/sup] Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy book? My memory isn't quite perfect on it...crewman_number_6 said:
I used to be. But then I saw The Matrix...
But then I saw the third Matrix movie and I was sure again.

I am certain that there is no limit to human stupidity, and that the only way I can deal with the amount of stupid that I have to tolerate on a daily basis is through the sweet taste of alcohol.
I'm certain that the laws here in northern Virginia in regards to cars and the modifications thereof are draconian at best, and down-right illogical at worst.
I am certain that I would be much happier if I lived in a place that didn't have summer.

I think the only certainty is mathematical science, since all of this could be an illusion, the very fabric of reality could be fake, none of this may be true. But there's one thing I'm sure of: 1 + 1 = 2.
