| 78. The Value of Truth and What Happens When U Don't Have It (2008) | 13 Apr 2026 | 00:52:36 | |
The Value of Truth and What Happens When U Don't Have It Veritas Forum at Louisiana State University February 17, 2008
Why is truth so valuable? It enables you to deal with reality successfully. Reality is what you run into when you’re wrong. Simply believing something doesn’t make it true or false. Truth is accuracy of representation. You know something if you’re able to represent it as it is on an appropriate basis of thought and experience.
