“My Dad Might Be Alive”: 50 Things People Are 100% Certain Are True Despite Having No Evidence
We probably all have that one hill that we're ready to die on. That one truth that we have no proof for but still believe no matter what. Some can be quite entertaining, like the now-memed-to-death claim that Keanu Reeves is immortal. Others, like thinking that your phone is always listening to you, are easily proven or disproven.
So when one netizen asked, "What are you 100% certain is true despite having no evidence to confirm or disprove your belief?" naturally, a whole bunch of commenters delivered. From theories that cats and dogs purposely break things just to wind us up, to some conspiracy-like opinions, the Redditors were ready to share. Read the most captivating entries below and don't forget to upvote the ones you like the best!

The number of stupid people is outpacing those with average intelligence resulting in the overall dumbing down of society.
Our dog knew my wife was pregnant before she did. Normally she was a sweet and lazy lovable dumb*ss who would hang out with whoever wasn't moving. (The dog, not the wife) Then one day, she decided she wasn't going to leave my wife's side. She wasn't aggressive, but she wasn't going anywhere either. Followed her everywhere for a few weeks, then spousal unit started getting sick, and went to the doctor, and the doctor said "Lets check the obvious"... And now I have an eight year old daughter, and that dog is her constant companion.
Conspiracy theories are purposefully circulated in order to create dissonance and divide people so that we forget about legitimate issues.
Some of the 'truths' people list here actually have evidence behind them. Like the fact that drinks taste better in glass bottles than in plastic bottles. Even if Coca-Cola's spokespeople claim that their Coke tastes the same regardless of the packaging. Food chemist Sara Risch told Popular Science that there can be a subtle variation in taste when your drink is in an aluminum can, or a plastic or glass bottle.
"While packaging and food companies work to prevent any interactions, they can occur," she explained. Aluminum cans, for example, have a polymer lining, and it might absorb some soluble flavor from the soda. When it comes to plastic bottles, a chemical named acetaldehyde can find its way into your drink as well.
And while it might sound alarming, there's no need to think that it's harmful. Public health departments track this kind of potential chemical contact. So the only thing we should worry about is the slightly different taste.
Allowed to operate freely, corporations would gladly abandon any semblance of ethics to turn a profit, including ushering in the slavery and or deaths of their customers.
Aren't they already doing this? Especially with illegal immigrants, stealing their passports and forcing them to work is disturbingly not as rare as one would think. Then there's the whole "moving production to overseas" with child labor and massive exploitation.
Electronic appliances, phones, washing machines ... are intentionally made to break down after few years just so you have to buy new ones, cause repair is usually not worth it. My parents have 35 years old washing machine, mine broke twice in 2 years.
There is at least ONE giant creature deep down in the ocean that we don’t know about because we have never seen before. Like maybe one of those megalodons/plesiosaurs. We thought giant squids weren’t real until we found one.
Next up, the Big Mac debate. People have been saying for a while that the meat patty has been getting smaller and smaller throughout the years. It's a popular theory on social media, with posts on Quora and Reddit, and even TikToks where people call out the fast-food chain for the now-tiny patties.
What officially is the Big Mac? According to the McDonald's site, it's two "100% beef" patties, a special sauce, and a sesame seed bun. It also has "pickles, crisp shredded lettuce, finely chopped onion, and a slice of American cheese." And while the official photos look quite nice, the burger often looks different in reality.
A McDonald's spokesperson denies these rumors and told Yahoo News Australia that the size of the burgers has not changed. Interestingly, a former McDonald's corporate chef went on to TikTok to explain why the Quarter Pounder might have shrunken down. He says it comes down to the fast-food chain giant wanting to cut costs and make the burgers more affordable.
My bond with my bearded dragon goes beyond “he’s warm”. I understand the limitations of his tiny nervous system and that he isn’t capable of affection. I just firmly believe that he not only wants heat and food, but that he finds my presence to be pleasant. That boy will come off his basking log as hot as hell ever need to be, with a belly full of bugs, and still come hauling over just to fall asleep on me. I don’t know what it is, but it’s more than just him seeking the necessities.
Reptiles release a different hormone than mammals in response to safety and happiness. This hormone is released in the presence of humans in captive bred reptiles. They do recognise their people, pick favourites, seek play, and seek attention from their person. I've worked with reptiles and have cared for sneks.
Coke/soft drinks taste better in glass bottles than plastic.
Religions are man made.
This is not speculation. This a very well documented fact.
true. If all traces of both science and religion vanished, there would be whole new religions, but science would stay the same, albeit slightly different. Science can be proven systematically, while religion jumps to conclusions about the unexplained.
Load More Replies...Of course religions are human made institutions. Not even religious institutions argue with this. The real question is regarding the nature of the phenomena/events that inspire religious traditions to form.
So like in the old days, The Sun, The Moon, Rain, Thunder and lightning and many other phenomema? Well, we know their nature very well, without religion
Load More Replies...Religion is a way of extracting money, labour and loyalty from easily duped adherents. It is a human failing which is easily exploited.
And I personally think it’s because of how we humans so desperately needs to understand everything around us. Caveman Steve - what do you think about that bright thing that sounds terrible that comes down from the sky sometimes. It can make stuff burn. Caveman Will - i have no idea dude! But its probably some magical being sitting in the clouds throwing them at us because we do something wrong. And thats how religion was invented, true story. Ask Steve
The OP is confusing religion, which is the man made organized worship of a deity, with the existence of a supreme being.
No, not necessarily. Reread what he said. He seems to be defining religion precisely as you did. It is not he who is introducing a confusion. He made no reference or comparison, direct or indirect, to any supreme being.
Load More Replies...if they weren't - that is, if they were objective fact - they'd agree. That's why the disagreements in science are on minutiae whereas religious dfferences are huge.
But Atheism is made by the Roman Catholic church in France. Just after the French revolution and Napoleon. A monastery full of monks was instructed to extract God from the Bible and the scriptures. To prove that without God there would be no ethics ("without God there is no humanity"). Result: the monks left the church.
Religion was invented so that the dishonest could have a quick path to power, money, social status, and get away with sexual assault.
Even if god was real, the following religion still would be manmade…
The one doesn't belong here. The thread is about people believing something without proof. Whereas the statement "Religions are man made." is a simple fact/statement. It is no different than saying "Deer have four legs." The comments are filled with people's opinions on religion. And in fact, I consider some of them based on the same thing as religion is based on "faith". Science can't prove one way or another if a god exists. But people insist somehow science has proven that there isn't any god. That is based on faith/a belief, not on science.
Of course they are, what else would they be? It's fascinating what lengths people have gone and will continue to go to, to invent and subsequently and without any proof, take as absolute fact when they're desperate for something to believe in, or they need something to answer away all the hideousness in the world or any other of the countless reasons. Organised religion is one of the worst things to ever happen to this planet. I've never understood why so many people are totally ok with "serving" an entity that says worship me and only me, do everything I say no matter how bizarre, or suffer horrific consequences. So a massive narcissistic sociopath then. To me that sounds awful.
And that ppl hate & kill over this made up stuff shows how stupid we are. No single religion is exempt from this. Buddhists killing Muslims shocked me.
They are, indeed. And God may be made up. But so is every song ever written. Those songs exist because they are made up.... so doesn't that prove that God must exist?
The tangible existence of music does not prove the existence of a god. If a god exists because human beings thought of it, then that would mean humanity created god, not the other way round. Therefore, it wouldn't be a true god, would it?
Load More Replies...Also religions on their own are perfectly fine. Its when you combine religion and people that problems arise.
I try to stay out of religion. Don’t believe in anything unless there’s proven facts, my motto is.
Ok, but who made man? Just a question… Is there not something bigger than us?
Evolution got us here. Why do you have such a need for something bigger then us?

Actually, we do have evidence that religions are man made. We got fossils older than 6000 years!!!!
A book "Sapiens" explains the emerge and place of religion in human society really nicely.
The universe is deterministic. It's godless, and neutral, and defined only by physical laws. Every single event, it the result of a prior cause.
And organized religion is by definition man-made. Organized religion is to spirituality what Home Owners Associations are to nice neighborhoods.
The universe is deterministic. It's godless, and neutral, and defined only by physical laws. And EVERY action is the result of a prior cause
Yes, they are. Most probably for "society bonding". And also to answer "5 questions". Religion is a great tool for that, but maybe we can replace it with something new now.
I’m convinced religion was dreamt up to keep the huddled masses from complaining about massive inequality. I actually posted that somewhere, the cynicism of the whole ‘the meek shall inherit the Earth’ thing, and I’ll never forget the reply I got. Some guy going, “Atheists are the biggest, most evil liars - they know God exists but because they’re masochists they want to go to hell, but they’re also sadists so they want to drag believers down there with them.” If anyone has any idea where to even begin with this devoid-of-logic lunacy, please let me know.
I think most spiritual belief systems started as earnest, pre-scienitific attempts to understand the natural world. Primitive humans living in a dangerous, capricious and often tragic universe, and doing their best to connect events with no understanding of the difference between correlation and causation (a problem which still vexes a substantial fraction of the modern population), and to understand things seen in their dreams and their experiences on hallucinogenic substances. It takes almost no time to go from that to chiefs, kings and petty parents announcing that the gods are on their side, and you’re being punished for disobeying the sacred word. [Side note: don’t argue with the loonies. It’s pointless.]
Load More Replies...God has plenty of proof: 95% are Christian, and the Bible. Fact bomb dropped.
All true religions are revelations from the Creator. It's zealots and corrupt clergy that poison the teachings of the Prophets. All revelations come from the same source, the Creator.
Who decides what a "true" religion is? Men. How do they decide that? Based on books written by men. I see little influence of a creator in all of that, mostly just people scrabbling for power or control.
Load More Replies...McDonald's can make their burgers cheaper in some ways. One of them is to mix some frozen beef into fresh patties. However, at least in the U.S., McDonald's prides itself on never using frozen meat. That said, there might be loopholes where a certain percentage of frozen beef might be acceptable.
Another way to make the patties cheaper (and possibly smaller) is to reduce the lean-to-fat ratio. "If the fatty beef portions are cheaper than the lean portions, then they can actually make a fattier beef patty still hitting the appropriate weights. But when you cook it, more of that fat is released and you might have a smaller-looking patty," the former chef Mike Haracz explained.
Facebook and other apps listen and advertise accordingly.

When one of my friends was in his last stages of cancer, I woke up at 5 in the morning just completely heartbroken and sobbing. I don't think I have ever felt the same kind of sadness I did in that moment.
I woke my boyfriend up and told him I needed to call my friend's wife because something was wrong. He said I couldn't call her at 5 in the morning because if she wasn't at the hospital with him she would freak out. He was of course right. She called me 30 minutes later and told me he had passed away at 5.15. I was supposed to visit him in the morning but I was to 4 hours to late.
I don't normally believe in anything supernatural or the afterlife, but I just know deep down in my heart, that it was him saying his goodbye.

I'm 100% positive my sister died of covid before covid was supposed to be in my state.
We had something really bad going around in the fall of 2019 and the Winter of 2020. It sent many people to the hospital with pneumonia or breathing difficulties. Several customers at my place of work were diagnosed with COPD even though they never smoked. Others coughed up blood. My coworker came to work sick as a dog in January 2020 and I sat across from him at lunch along with another coworker. The next week I got sicker than I have ever been. My sister and her husband also got very ill even though we hadn't been in contact. I could barely breathe and had to sleep for 3 days leaning upright on the back of the couch. I was so ill I almost broke down and went to the ER even though at the time I was uninsured and never went to the doctor. My coworker that I got it from went to the doctor and they did a test for the flu but it came back negative. The other coworker that sat beside me at lunch also got sick and she too came back negative for influenza. A week later my sister and her husband fell ill and ended up at the doctors office. They both tested negative for influenza.
Two days after my sister went to the doctor, she got out of bed and fell dead to the floor. That was February 18th, 2020. We assumed she had a heart attack, the cause of death was a heart attack only because of the sudden death and her history of having a heart attack a few decades before. No autopsy was done and she was cremated. This was about the same time Covid showed up on the West coast. We live in North Carolina and no covid was supposed to be in the state at that time. My coworker that got it the same time I did had a brother who also had it and ended up in the hospital with a very virulent pneumonia (tested negative for influenza) and died the same day my sister did.
I swear to this day my sister and my coworker's brother both died of covid but no proof and no way to prove it.

I’m convinced that theme parks/fairs/carnivals pay people to walk around with giant prizes to make the games look more winnable and convince more people to play.
Don't know about carnivals, but I was part of the organization committee at a yearly charity fair, and we took care of giving away very early on a couple of the major prizes at the skill games, so people would be drawn in. The kids who scored anything above average early into the afternoon would win one of the RC cars, or Barbies, pro-league footballs and jerseys etc, while later on to win those would have required a nearly perfect score.

Companies are offering monthly payment plans in an effort to normalize having a low income and high debt.
Also, monthly payments are better for company books. They represent a constant and predictable income stream, that for management is better than highly volatile and unpredictable quarterly sales.

Lately, Disney has been trying to revive the old “steamboat Willy“ version of Mickey Mouse through merchandise and new cartoons drawn in the old fashion that nobody really asked for. I think they are doing all of that deliberately so that they can try to fight the scheduled copyright expirations on their old cartoons.
That's a very well known tactic, no conspiracy here. Disney included the character in movie logos and made merchandise because they are turning it into a trademark instead of a intellectual property. IPs expire and go into public domain, trademarks do not but are limited in scope and application; also, the protections granted are different. Disney is trying to convert the expired protection into a new, enforceable one, hoping to limit the availability of the character either through proper brand protection or through "scare tactics": this kind of conversion is a gray area, so if you want to use the character for anything you may be into uncharted waters. Are your pocket deep enough to go to war with Disney Legal, or is it better not to take the gamble?

Spirits of nature. Anyone who has lived close to a forest for some period of time has weird, unexplainable stories to tell. I've seen some real weird s**t (i live very close to the Atlantic forest in Brazil).
I saw some interesting things in Kakadu NT, I worked the balls up to ask a few locals from the Oenpeli tribe, and was told there’s a lot of spirits out there and it’s not unusual that I kept seeing what I saw - almost like a ghibli film 😂 just black shadows walking or in the act of sitting down on grass etc. tripped me out so bad. Other locals talked of unexplainable things they’ve heard or seen while hunting and camping etc. it’s such a fun place
That my dad might be alive. He supposedly died in 2009. He was a huge paranoid conspiracy theorist to the point where he would bury his money, planted bushes to hide behind incase the government had a shoot off with him, and at one point thought we all had been replaced by clones. The only people who saw his body are one of my aunts and my grandma who had Alzheimer’s. They told us he was cremated and at the funeral there was no coffin, no urn, all there was was a black and white photo from when he was 10 (he was born in the 50’s). I’ve yet to see his urn or death certificate and it’s been 12 years. He had connections to people who could have easily helped him fake his death, he also had the money to do this. People have also supposedly seen him in Indiana (they took a picture and tbh the guy looks just like him only a bit older, same hunchback, same tattoo on his leg, and he even walked with the same little limp).
There is something beyond this material life. A week before my mom died she told me that "I have to go home soon, but you have to stay here". As she was actively dying she kept waving, as if to people, and once even told me to move out of my chair, as if I was blocking her view. I pondered this once in a while ever since; and then I came upon " Hospice nurse julie(I think that's her name; I know it started with a J) on tiktok. She simply describes, without religious or any other bias, the process of dying that she has witnessed. Apparently, a dying person often says that they are going home, and also says that they see lost loved ones and even pets who intimate or even say outright not to worry, and that they will help the dying person pass, as much as a month before they die.
yep I've heard this but it could be brain illusions like a dream state, it doesn't mean the "seen" persons still exist.

My co-worker lies about her medical conditions.
She lies that she has seizures, and while I can’t prove it, I know it’s a lie because she’ll drive the same day that she claims to have a seizure.
Any time you mention any medical condition, she has it and it’s worse than your case.
She has mentioned having toxic shock syndrome, colitis, and a bunch of other things I can’t recall at the moment. One day we were talking about Autism, and she mentioned that her 22 y.o. daughter (who also happens to work with us) was diagnosed as a child. A few days later the daughter casually mentioned that she had found out just recently that she’s Autistic. I wanted to tell her that she only JUST found out because her mom just recently made that s**t up.

Just as an example, they had electric cars before the Model T, but they were rubbish compared to modern ones in terms of performance, battery life etc. And of course the infrastructure to support them just didn't exist.

I will swear up and down for the rest of my life that i have a great uncle who was locked away in an insane asylum. All the facts fit! He was most likely born in about 1940, and since my family has owned the house we live in since the 1800s, he lived here. i think I must have his bedroom. I found a box with a journel and a few pictures that were enough to convince me he was probably abused by my great grandpa(he was a pretty s****y guy from everything my grandma says) and also most likely gay. Grandpa being the a*****e he was, sent his oldest son away to an insane asylum so he wouldn't stain the family legacy. My poor great uncle died there at around 26. Grandma is geting pretty old and will occasionally tell me stories involving an older brother. According to the rest of the family, she never had an older brother. So either my grandma hallucinated a brother untill she was 9, or he was sent to an insane asylum. I'm planning on check public birth and death reccords to be sure.
If I am right, i plan on moving his body to the family plot and getting all the family photos from before grandma was 9, added back into the house.

And when the birds survive, it’s not for long. in 1999, ERIKA polluted an entire coast, I joint a group to find and bring the birds to the care center, we were 15 volunteers, we all "adopted" a bird to save, none survived :'(

1. Plenty of these have lots of evidence. The people who posted them didn't understand the assignment. 2. Threads like these are showcases for people to demonstrate what poor critical thinkers they are.
And plenty of the others had comments arguing with them from people who also didn't understand the assignment.

I don't believe this, but there's a lot of personal reason to conclude that dreams exist within these planes running near ours. Continuing stories, worlds being affected by certain crossover events, etc. It's a fun thing to think about, but I think I'm just a s****y story-teller at heart.
In my dreams, I often re-visit places that exist only in my dreams. City layouts, a hotel by the sea, various houses. I don't actually believe that I'm in a different universe or something, but sometimes it's kind of nice to think of it that way.

It was only after Galileo to his own surprise that the Earth revolved around the sun and reported his findings to the church did he eventually become a heretic.
My "unprovable" belief is that when the super collider was turned on in 2012, it caused our universe to accidentally collide with another parallel universe (or even some of us to slip into it). That's why we have so many things that don't add up or false memories as a group conscious (Mandela effect for one). Also, I firmly believe that the first "homo-" species were actually aliens exiled here as a prison planet.
Dunno bout that but it certainly sounds interesting lol

nice! I have a personal theory that division by zero is not undefined, it's infinite. Prove me wrong.
