Truth

I remember being told or I heard it on one of these legal movies or series the following:

TRUTH IS ONLY THAT 

WHICH CAN BE PROVEN 

                           IN A COURT OF LAW

And, I would say that I wholeheartedly agree with that because I have seen the truth being disregarded by a supposedly jury of my peers.

I have also heard that the people who win the wars write the history books...  and I believe that as well...  because America's history has always been slanted to favor Caucasian Society.

However, the truth that I still cannot figure out is why Christian Churches in the USA have framed photos of Jesus being portrayed as Caucasian when that is clearly NOT THE TRUTH.

When I was living with my parents, truth was whatever they said it was.  When I was in the military, truth was whatever a superior said it was.  When I was in college, truth was whatever the professor said it was.  When I was in the workforce, truth was whatever my boss or supervisor said it was.  When I was married, truth was whatever my wives said it was.

It appears that the Arabs have a different truth than do the Jews.  Americans have a different truth than the Chinese or Russians.  Africans have a different truth than Europeans.

Mormons believe that having multiple wives is the only truthful way to live...  and while that truth has some obvious advantages, I would say it has some obvious disadvantages as well.

However, there are some truths that cannot be denied:

• Each day has 24 hours
• We have one sunrise/sunset each day
• There is gravity on earth
• Each hour has 60 minutes
• Human beings are born and they die
• We must have air to breathe, food, water, and sleep to live
• Only women can get pregnant

Truth is one's perception of reality and we have made the assumption that the reality in which we live is in and of itself a truth.
