What Is The Truth?
It has been said “Only the truth shall set you free”.
But, what is the truth?
Never before, in the history of humanity, has the truth been challenged, questioned, and distorted as it has been during the past decade.
The decadence of moral and spiritual values are the precursors of a new world order where the truth is no longer based on scientific knowledge and common sense, but on ignorance/malice, hatred, and mass media manipulation.
Nevertheless, the truth always prevail because even if we have managed to fool ourselves for our entire life, at the end of our physical existence, we will have to face the truth. Denial and/or ignorance will no longer be an option.
The main difference between hyper-conscious primates (i.e., humans) and lower-conscious creatures (e.g., Apes) is our ability to discern between good from evil, right from wrong, as well as to fool ourselves. This does not mean that good and evil, right and wrong, are the same for everyone, that is why there is the rule of law under which we are all equal. Just like somebody’s trash is somebody else’s treasure, what is good/right to someone may be evil/wrong to someone else and vice-versa and that is why without the rule of law we would live in the law of the jungle. What matters most, according to the rule of law, is the intention/purpose behind.
