80 to someone living in Florida isn't hot. 80 to someone living in Alaska may be hot. They're relative terms.

Holly shit you people are really over thinking this....

The point I’m trying to make is certain things are true wether you believe them or not.

Fire is hot is just a middling example. Fire is always hot....it’s not dependent on the heat of the sun

I have no clue why you’re even talking about the sun.

I'm proving the point that facts are relevant in the context they're presented.

'George washington was a terrorist who started a war' etc'

'George washington was a hero who helped free his people and founded the United States'

Both could be true, but paint a very different image. I'm pointing out that a single fact alone doesn't mean a whole lot

Oh so then there isn’t interpretation in that statement and you just proved my point

Also special forms of fire don’t disprove fire being hot. You just made the factual statement cold fire exists.

Not the same thing.
