Truth is...

Whatever you want it to be?

Whatever feels right?

Whatever works?

Whatever is said sincerely?

Whatever is intended?

No, no, no, no, and no.

Truth is that which corresponds to reality.

A statement or an idea that corresponds to the way the world really is - that's what truth is.

You might object, "No one can know the way the world really is."

And to that I ask, "Is that the way the world really is, that no one can know the way the world really is?"

If the reply is yes, then we can know the way the world really is, because you are saying that the way the world really is, is that we can't know the way the world really is. And in doing so, you are affirming that we can indeed know the way the world really is. But, at the same time you are denying that we can know the way the world really is.

Denying and affirming the truth of a particular proposition at the same time in the same sense violates the most foundation principle of logic, that being the law of non-contradiction. Something cannot be both true and false at the same time in the same sense.

So am I right or am I wrong?

Because I can't be both.

Right?
