"Not all Truth is true..."

Would you argue that putting dog excrement in someones eyes to cure blindness is true or not?.

It is neither "Truth" nor fact, any longer....

But when it WAS, it was a fact, cause my cousin, heard it from a guy he knows who is wise in such things...

Facts are true, until they are proven wrong as well...

I know, and in most cases, it would be best if people stuck to the facts, but there selfish enough to think the truth is more important.

See, life is interpretation...

I dont go around telling you you are using words wrong, something you do quite often...

It doesnt add to the conversation...

its about seeing the message that is being said...

Yet, you argue for facts...

Here is a fact...

I know, and in most cases, it would be best if people stuck to the facts, but [strike]there[/strike] their selfish enough to think the truth is more important.

I do this, not to be a jerk, but to show you that you have to be able to look beyond what is presented to you, to understand what people are saying...

And, no offence, but you do it more that you'd suspect...

I have never pointed it out, because there is probable some fallacy I am using, lol... My fallacy teacher should PM me in a bit to let me know..... And despite the rumors, I am not a jerk, lol...

Its ok, I get what you mean, but remember that most of us are trying to communicate as well, and dont always use the 'right' word either...

This reminds me of one of my favorite quotes from the first Men in Black.

Tommy Lee Jones as Agent K wrote: 1,500 years ago, everybody knew that the Earth was the center of the universe. 500 years ago, everybody knew that the Earth was flat. And 15 minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow.

Yes this is from a fictional source, but I still think it has relevance and truth here.

_{(see what I did there with the truth. :laugh: )}

They're is a perfectly fine abbreviation for they are, thank you very much.
