Recently I have heard several people say this to me, "we cannot really know what's true, we cannot trust what we are told" - I totally understand that this is how life appears, I was in the same boat some years ago thinking how can you possible know what's true, there is no way of knowing, you cannot know the truth. Then someone kindly pointed out to me that I thought that statement that I had made was very true, that I sincerley believed the truth of what I was saying and I was living out my life accordingly! It hit me in the face, although that statement that we can't really know anything sounds so plausible, nothing else in my life lived up to that. It is what philosophers call a logical fallacy, logically it doesn't play true anywhwere else in life.
We can know the truth, we examine the evidence and we make up our minds. Don't hold that examination off like I did, I emplore you!
