Depends on what you are calling truth,. If you are saying truth is defined as common agreement about the validity of the statement, then I am declaring this is not truth, it is just common agreement which can be changed making the previous agreement about such a statement false.
Truth is what is revealed once all doubt, veils, masks, chicanery and deceit have been removed, which is not possible in the temporal world, except perhaps on an individual basis, which is not proof that functions for common use.
Referring to an "unquestionable source" whether you think it is Aristotle, Descartes, or God, based on all the rational arguments that come from associated doctrine is simply an attempt to declare a belief system based on available evidence.
Available evidence is enough to achieve common agreement about something, but as additional evidence is brought forward agreement/doubt about that thing is up for challenge. So, it fails the test. You can't prove truth. |
