Truth is something that is sought. And all searches lead to God. Something
being true or false has nothing to do with truth. Truth is more fundamental
than facts and it is what gives being to facts. Of course, the meaning of
all the words can be different to different people. But that is the meaning
I have of the word truth. Let us not forget also that Christ said "I am the
Truth." That is quite a statement!
