I used to think two months ago that truth was an impossible-to-advance theme in philosophy, because I had been a month trying. But then I read Kierkegaard and some Epistemology, from both I got a lot of ideas, and now I know that truth is a question able to fight with.

If you have read philosophy, you will know that philosophy gives lots of questions. It doesn't give lots of answers. People, wrongly, conclude that philosophy is useless and that it doesn't move. But it does. What happens here is that philosophy moves slowlly, it rrequiers a lot of thinking for avery little moves, but after many centuries, some things have been done on most questions. You must not go to the principla question directly, youmsut go through little parts.

For example, kierkegaard decided to fight with the different truths. He concluded that there are objective truths and subjective truths. Objective truths are collecions of information about facts from reality. Subjective truths are those that if they change, i.e. they become false, there would be a change in the being of a being. For example, for a theist, "god exists" is a truth, but a subjective truth, and thus, if this person discovered that "god exists" is false, he would change of being, he would be no more how he was, he would change.

Descartes' said that the only truths and knowledges are those of which you can be absolutelly certain.

Hume, Berkeley and Locke, beleived that truths were what you percieved from your senses.

There are many other philosophers and philosophies, you just need to read books, and you will get your ideas.
