Whats is Truth? Most people would agree that Truth is a verified or indisputable fact, proposition, principle, or the like.
However society increasingly seems to be embracing the idea that there is such a thing as relative Truth, that everyone can have their own individual Truths so whats true for you may not be true for me.
If you say that what someone believes cannot be true then you are branded as intolerant. Surely true tolerance is accepting that we all believe contrasting things which cannot possibly all be correct and discussing them rationally in an attempt to ascertain the truth.
For example Christianity and Islam cannot possibly both be true. Some people would say that they are both different ways of getting to the same god. However if you look at Christianity and Islam their Gods are so fundamentally different that they cannot possible be the same.
Any thoughts?
