What Is Truth
Truth as we call it is only a claim with reasoned justifications. In this case it cannot be proven as fact but as reasonably true. This "reasonably true" is something that a group of people can all agree meets culturally acceptable checks. For example most everyone accepts that serial murder is not okay, however this may not be true in the mind of a particular person. Truth can only be determined on one's own level of conciousness, what you believe and see to be true in your own mind is true, but only for you. Everyone else in the world has their own thoughts and opinions on what is truth, this doesn't make your thoughts any more true, or theirs any less. It is an internal conflict that only you can make a decision on. The book makes a good point when it says to read as a believer and to read as a doubter. There are always two sides of an issue and it is important to try and understand where all the information is coming from. Deciphering bias in an article is vastly important.
