It’s interesting to see how the word truth has changed and fascinating to see that no one noticed. We would all say that we know what truth is. But the definition has been modified and it has a huge impact on our lives. The change, done ever so covertly, has us associating truth with our original definition, not knowing that it really means something else. This was done in an effort to maneuver the way people think and how people act.
Truth, The Original
There are similarities between Webster’s definition and the one we have today. Both state that truth is the “real state of things, exactness, and a verified or indisputable fact.” The definition lets us know that truth is constant; it doesn’t change by situation or opinion. Truth is what is and nothing else.
