Fact? Or Opinion?

In my opinion:

Facts are absolutes - They can't be argued. If you can think of a logical counter to it then it isn't fact.

because it's ambiguous. Figuratively, it's true. Literally... hard to say

but in all honesty, don't you just plainly build your own reality?

There's two ways to look at it

Empiricism, which states that all knowledge is built on senses and perception, and rationalism, which states that all knowledge is based on logic

It's a tough call really, what with how logic couldn't easily exist without the perception's building block, or how nothing could be properly percieved without logic

personally, I'm stumped(they both have valid arguments)

In this world there are facts and opinions, us breathing air is a fact, what else could it possibly be? The issue of God could be an opinion, or a theory, or fact to some people. It all depends.
