The truth about truth

The truth about truth

51c2b550.jpg







The facts about facts or the truth about truth, is all relative.


Near the bottom of the pile of truth is what you personally believe. But right at the bottom of the pile is dogma: the belief in a belief that other believers prescribed to you – like religious fanatics or fanatical evolutionists or experts!

Somewhere in the middle are those that subscribe to logical evaluation and/or rational investigation.

So what’s at the top of the pile ....?

At the top of the pile are those that view themselves, others and the environment from many points of view and in multiple contexts. Here we come the closest to the truth about truth ... provided we accept that it’s changing all the time. But the more it changes, the more it stays the same!
