If you accept the notion that there is a real world out there (as opposed to just your mind and the rest are figment of ur imagination), then truth is something that did indeed happen in that real world during the course of time (also have to accept the notion that there is a continuous time line)

If you neglect the above notions, truth is whatever you want it to be : )

Lacuna:

You're right, I expected something a bit different from a resident of Ketchikan regarding Truth. Perhaps something about Truth being swimming upstream to spawn in Fish Creek, or maybe something to do with rain.

Yes, that's it! Rain..... rain is Truth.


asptamer:

you know, I have a great deal of trouble with the whole linear thing about time..... and have constant doubts about this "reality" stuff.

krets:

I've gotta say that it sounds like I'm not missing much, not having a TV.

You want the truth? You can't handle the truth!

Sorry, I was just so surprised that no one had said that that my enthusiasm clobbered my reason over the back of the head...

The Truth is all that is present, past, and future. Unfortunately, it is hard to actually explain what Truth is...

Take the Red pill, and you will discover Truth...take the blue, and you will wake up tomorrow, and forget all about it...

The Truth is, quite simply, what you see when you pull your head out of your ass. (no offense or crassness meant)

The Truth:

The truth is what people believe that they saw, what they think that they can prove or what they think is thier correct explaniation for a situation to occour. For everyone, the truth is different, noone ever sees the same one. The full truth about any given subject is beyond the comprehension of any being/entity in the universe.

If you knew what God knows, you would understand Truth completely. This is not possible for any of us here at this time so we can only see Truth in part.

I believe it is the first definition that Lacuna cited: "Conformity to fact or actuality"

But JKMabry's description is the best I have ever heard
