The Simplicity of Truth

With so many conflicting messages coming at us from various sources, it can be difficult to determine what is and isn't true. We can look to science or religion or influential organizations and individuals to guide us, but ultimately we must look inside ourselves to discern the false from the real.

Truth is truth and lies are lies, but when the two are mixed together it can be hard to separate them.

The inherent truth or falsehood of a principle or idea does not change based on who does or doesn't support it, although our perception of it might. The nature of the universe does not turn with the tides of popular opinion.

No person or organization has a monopoly on truth.

Words are only as true as the truths they contain.

Truth cannot be changed or destroyed, only discovered.

A religion is only as true as the doctrines it teaches. Scientific findings are only as accurate as the methods used to explain observable phenomena.

Truth does not change based on our willingness or refusal to accept it. Ultimately, the quality of our lives depends solely upon the degree to which we are aligned with truth.
