Prelude to the End of Truth

Years ago, when I wrote a response to a blog concerning truth is news reporting, I defined truth as “a pretentious concoction formulated by oneself to nurture their moral idiosyncratic predisposition”, and was not surprised by the outcry that followed. Individuals disagreed, dismissed my ideas as radical and asserted that truth has no versions, only lies does. Some even went to the extent of pointing out that my opinion were as muddled as my name, I thought that was funny. Strong conviction and ideology are not necessarily complimentary, one can believe abortion is bad but is for capital punishment, the end result of both are the same, systematic termination of a human life. Though the point in contention was not what was true, but what one believed was true, their convenient oversight of a simple observation that differed from their own belief provoked me to dissect the human acceptance of an “interpretation” as a “fact”.
