The Concept of Truth...

Another obscure theory inspired by too much coffee...

So, now, for the third blog of the day, we ramble about the concept of truth. It's an election year and all, so truth is as scarce as ever. Here's the thing though, there is no truth.

Wow, wide generalizations, you'll never hear one of those out of me...

And, in support of that idea... There is only one absolute, and that's it. Nothing, as in nothing, as in not a damned thing, can possibly be absolutely true. Think about it... Cause that usually leads to good things and all, thought for that matter. Your mind will first fall to the most simplistic reply, which is of course... The sky is blue, and the grass is green.

Yeah, the sky is sort of blue, but it's not. The sky is a shade of blue, and it's not the sky really so much as the atmosphere bouncing light back towards us that began at the sun, and bounced off the oceans. Hence the whole blue hue.

As for the grass, it's not green. Well, varieties of it aren't, blue grass does have a rather blue tint. And even that which does appear green isn't green, not in that declarative absolute sense...

This is seemingly getting thinner and thinner as a theory as I continue...

There's only one absoulte, and that's it. That's all i've got to say to defend my theory, because it's my theory and all, damned it.
