"PS, there is not more than one way to the truth."

False.


Can you not see that this is a logical paradox.

But what is the truth? Since you don't know and I don't know, that can only mean there are as many possible paths to The Truth as there are independently thinking minds. For every thought, there is a path.

The old 'open mind' argument is so strange to me. Let's say that you are in a room full of doors, and you choose to leave them all open. By doing this you have chosen to close the door on objective Truth.

There really is no such thing as 'being open to all possibilities'. Because certainly one possibility is that a single Truth exists.

Without seeming to notice it you have chosen to believe in a single Truth called 'openmindednes'.

In the end it is a meaningless belief.
