Next question: Is Lava wet?

hm, I can throw you into a pool of lava and you can tell the rest of us.

On this question, 'wet' is a property that describes a liquid that can make anything damp, can we move on?
The answer is yes

The OP is using the word 'wet' as an adjective.

The definitions of the word as an adjective are as follows:

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/wet

The first point clearly states "consisting of, containing, covered with, or soaked with liquid (as water)", therefore water is wet. Apparently anything "containing appreciable quantities of readily condensable hydrocarbons" is also considered wet.

Water wettens things so therfore it cannot be wet because it was always wet to begin with

Water doesn't feel wet if your in it, at the same time it does. I'm saying yes and no.
