A statement of Reality is true if it doesn't contradict other statements concerning reality..
A belief is true if and only if one can act on it without upsetting one's expectations.
Truth in Nature - There is an element of truth in everything. Nature teaches, although it can sometimes be misleading...
Is truth where the problem is?? |
I subscribe to the self investigation of truth. This is a process in me not denying ones free will to "see" as such some subscription of belief may curtail the will and the process varies from persona to persona in how the process is set up and to what degree of intensity the investigation process is done before it ends.
Why processes end have many reasons, excuses, and rationalizations but all endings have one thing in common. They end when the persona is satisfied to the degree of enlightenment given them.
Truth professed is a matter then of degree not absolute but possibly absolute and even occasionally absolute.
The ability of the persona to know truth on any given issue is therefor based on the ability to absorb the degree of the truth and this ability to absorb is quantifiable to who the persona is in the sense of what they are.
The persona will absorb truth to the degree they can do so by what makes them an individual and the rest does not get in.
What does not get in goes somewhere else in vectored manner of all projection.

So some get short changed.
This to me is a crime.
