Please provide citations for your claims.

I think you can use google yourself, but I honestly hope that we can conduct a conversation with a certain expectation of common knowledge. I hope I don't have to provide links that gravity exists when I tell you that when I throw a rock it will hit the floor.

None of these claims are new or controversial. They have been researched and proven to death by now.

Here's what you've done in this thread so far:

"These are facts: ..."

(baseless claims with no justification)

"I hope I don't need to explain why they're are true"

(no justification or actual argument)

"None of these are controversial"

(apart from people disputing them here)

"They have been proven"

(without presenting proof)
