Existential Threats of Truth and Reality

We see TRUTH as something that is relatively easy to understand in that, one either tells the truth or one lies...  but, it is not that easy when one is not saying anything.

For example, when one media outlet reports that there are illegal immigrants coming across our southern borders and another media outlet does not report that at all...  which one is telling the truth?

Just because something is reported does not make it true, nor does not reporting something make it true either...

So what then in TRUTH?

Is my truth just my reality and belongs to no one else or is reality shared?  And how many people must share that reality in order for it to be perceived as truth?

Here is another example...

What about the theoretical?

Some physicists believe that everything is composed of very tiny vibrating filaments of energy called strings, but they cannot be seen...  it is just a theory.

Where is the truth in this and is that truth enough to create a reality?

Yet another example...

We live in the present truth of time.  What is happening right now.  But, a second after that reality of time, it is gone.  

• Where did it go to?  
• Did it really exist?  
• Was it real?  
• Is that time reality our truth?

Some say that truth is whatever that is written down by those who won the war.  And, while that makes sense...  it may not be that truthful...  for example...  do you think that the history of slavery would be written any differently if it had been written by slaves instead of slave owners?

Of course it would...

So, is our slavery history not correct and if so, then it is not truthful...  and the reality of slavery is fundamentally different than we think its reality has been portrayed.

This is a serious existential threat...  to our future as well as our present...  however, it does not really impact the past as the past has already happened and cannot be replayed...  replaying the past is not the same as retelling the past.

Who is responsible for accurately conveying the TRUTH that ultimately creates our REALITY?
