I think that there are lots of “truths” that actually are arbitrary beliefs stated as illusions of truth.

Can truths only be based on experiments?

Are truths limited by our own nature, us humans living on Earth-planet?

religion truth

guru asked:


As philosophy concerns itself with ‘truth’, consider the following experiment. If we were to arrange an experiment where the respondent was hooked up to a mild or moderate electrical shock and shocked each time they told the truth, would the test subject avoid or fear telling the truth over time?

How many people, due to some external reaction or response, fear telling the truth in your estimation?
I think some missed the point that there is negative conditioning that may override personal, ethical or moral constraints.

You could be the only one in the world that knows the truth from a bunch of erroneous ‘facts’ but everyone else thinks you are crazy because you fall out of the norm.

life truth

illbedamned asked:


When the conclusion does not seem to follow the premise, but it isn’t negated by it either, what is the truth value of the statement, Specifically for statements that involve contraposition and obversion? For example the statement:

” All non frogs are snakes”(Assume this were true) with a contraposition of “all non snakes are frogs.”

Would the truth value of the new statement be true, false or undetermined?
