Why is TRUTH so hurtful? | |

 User ID: 6857165  United States04/21/2021 01:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are no particular facts I have a problem with. The point is that what makes a fact a fact...is questioning it. Perhaps they have facts that could enlighten your facts and bring you to a common understanding. It sounds like you build defensive walls around your "facts". Who is really being closed off? Not sure why it would sound like I'm building walls. I didn't state any facts nor did I question any. I'm just posing a question for introspection. Maybe your perception could be altered in your favor. So this is a circle jerk...   Ivermectin is the answer... |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 80192051 United States04/21/2021 02:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The truth is pointless without effort. Quoting: Roadkill Bill The path to hell is paved with good intentions. May be so, but what about the TRUTH that is inherently harmful to these creatures? For most, truth is but a perception to relieve themselves from the fear of their own mortality. We create comfort zones and pass those long from generation to generation. When one looks outside that comfort zone, then that person is heretical and discarded. So, we must truly ask....what is the truth? Perception or relativity? Or, is it something else? The truths that I know in my life are life, death, hope, faith and love. And you don't get a refund. Does that make me right? Probably not, but it's how I live. |

How can a hierarchy exist if there is no objective TRUTH? If we can't say THIS is the TRUTH than how can one man rule another? It's a fruitless attempt. The goal should be to encourage ONE to seek the TRUTH, not force it upon them. ONE cannot bare fruits of the TRUTH if one does not believe it is and live by it. Fascism is impossible for this reason alone. |

And for contrast, what about a LIE is so enticing? Rebellion from the main stream. Denying your own fate or direction. It's our nature to rebel and create our own paths. Some may lie to escape the mundane. Others have their own reasons I guess. But, Some of the greatest gifts to mankind came from rebels throughout history. Were they liars as well? Depends on which side of "truth" you want to view their work. One could say that Muhammad was a liar. Or Jesus. Or Buddha. But, are the BILLIONS of believers lying as well? If so, why? |
