So, how does "philosophically true" differ from
"factually true"?
Factually true usually refers to an empirical theorization and
philosophically true refers to a wider group of theorise based upon
different branchs of philosophy, such as, empirical theory,
metaphysical theory, epistemological, phenomenological, objectivist,
etc, etc, ...
In science, a theory is an explanation. Evolution is a theory, just
like gravitation. Gravity is not a law of nature but an explaination
of observations. If you drop something, it's going to fall. That's an
observation: unsupported things fall. But you explain that observation
with the theory of gravity, which is that the mass of what whatever it
is you dropped, a pencil or a pen or something, is attracted by the
mass...it's really a theory of gravity? But remember, a theory is an
explanation.
"Philosophy" used to mean "science" (note the sayings of Brigham Young and
the writings of Michael Faraday), but speaking of usage, now "philosophy" is
mostly used to mean "ideology", which may include truths or falsehoods or
both.
91 For true science and true religion, are they not the same things, O man?
92 For I the Lord God am the author of all truth, which cometh from me.
Revelations of Jesus Christ 3:91-92
So, when a person asks another, What is your philosophy on such-and-such?,
this means, What is your ideology?, or What is your opinion?, or What is
your belief system?
We all think and act subjectively, more or less, no exceptions. But
concerning the ultimate reality, the things of Eternity, as there is God, be
careful what you say and write, even if you are unable or unwilling to
discipline your thoughts to think along the line of 2+2=4. To all who are
guilty, I say, take care that ye do not persist in denying the Holy Ghost
and the power thereof.
6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting
gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and
kindred, and tongue, and people,
7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of
his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the
sea, and the fountains of waters.
8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen,
that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath
of her fornication.
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man
worship the beast and his image, and receive [his] mark in his forehead, or
in his hand,
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out
without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented
with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the
presence of the Lamb:
11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they
have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and
whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
(New Testament | Revelation 14:6 - 11)
Hannes Alfven (Dec. 11, 1970 Nobel Lecture for the Physics Prize):
The hetegonic processes took place 4 to 5 billion years ago. The evolution
of the primary product of these processes into our present-day solar system
has consisted of a number of relatively slow changes: geological forces have
transformed the structure of the planets, tidal effects have braked the
spins of some of the bodies (especially of the satellites), collisions have
taken place in the asteroidal belt, and there have been meteor impacts on
the planetary surfaces, etc.
....
It was the question why the wanderers - the planets - moved as they did that
triggered off the scientific avalanche several hundred years ago. ... We now
ask how to go there, and we also ask how these bodies once were formed. And
if the night sky on which we observe them is at a high latitude, outside
this lecture hall - perhaps over a small island in the archipelago of
Stockholm - we may also see in the sky an aurora, which is a cosmic plasma,
reminding us of the time when our world was born out of plasma. Because in
the beginning was the plasma.

15 For they who believe in change, or evolution as it is known among men,
shall be damned and burned at my coming, while those whose hearts are turned
even unto the Fathers according to the truth, which varies not, shall be
saved upon eternal principles, and obtain heaven which is eternal, and dwell
forever with them, the Fathers, where there is no clash in doctrine, saith
the Lord, for they, even they my Sons, see perfectly, even with the same
mind, and understanding, even eye to eye as it is written when the Lord
shall bring again Zion.
16 Thus the Fathers have been saved according to the same gospel which must
save thee, O man, and upon the same principles which are consistent, which
is the light, even the same light that enlighteneth thy eyes, saith the Most
High God, even the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Art Bulla, whom ye know
not, Yea but I know him, saith the Lord, and have ordained that he shall
bear rule over thee, forever and ever, as mine anointed.
17 While they, even they who believe in change, shall they not die, and be
dissolved back into the dust that they lose their identities?
Revelations of Jesus Christ 159:15-17
1 FOR, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the
proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that
cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them
neither root nor branch.
2 ¶ But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with
healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the
stall.
(Old Testament | Malachi 4:1 - 2)
29 For where is the disputer that there is a God in that day which shall
burn, even as an oven, saith the Lord?
30 Now of these things, ye must judge.
31 For it is that by what judgment, saith the Lord, that a man judgeth, that
he shall also be judged, and it shall be unto every man, even according to
his work.
Revelations of Jesus Christ 8:29-31
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_Feynman
Joan Feynman (b. 31 March 1928) is an astrophysicist who made original
studies of the interactions between the solar wind and the Earth's
magnetosphere. While working at the NASA Ames Research Centre in 1971,
Feynman showed that coronal mass injections could be identified by the
presence of helium in the solar wind. She subsequently worked at the
National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, and the National
Science Foundation. In 1985, she moved to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Using data from Explorer 33, she demonstrated that the occurrence of auroras
is a product of the interaction of the solar wind with the magnetosphere. In
1999 she was named as one of JPL's elite senior scientists and in 2000 was
awarded NASA's Exceptional Achievement Medal. She retired from JPL as a
Senior Scientist in 2003. Recently, Joan Feynman co-authored articles
demonstrating the influence of solar activity on the climate of the first
millenium [1].
Feynman studied at Oberlin College, Syracuse University (PhD, 1958), and
Columbia University. She is the sister of the late physicist Richard
Feynman. Her son Charles Hirshberg is news editor of Popular Science. [1]

I bear witness by a testimony of the Holy Ghost given me earlier this year
that the Lord God of mercy and justice, even of Isaiah and Art Bulla, has
effected the very real phenomenon of Global Warming. Not only globally, but
throughout our solar system. I post this to the intent that a few will be
persuaded to see things as they really are, that they may fear Christ and
His Father and give glory to God and repent, in order to obtain the
salvation of the Lord. Amen.
The punishment of the late Nobel physicists, Richard Feynman and Hannes
Alfven, is no easy thing to bear.
167 And the common man and woman is not guiltless before me in these things,
saith the Lord, for in their sloth they have allowed themselves to be
deceived, even in these things and by false religions.
Revelations of Jesus Christ 3:167
