FIND AND FOLLOW THE TRUTH

FIND AND FOLLOW THE TRUTH
Do not forget that statistics and "reporting" can manipulate facts to mean whatever people want them to mean, even when the statistics and the "reporting" are honest. But facts, when presented honestly, usually give a clearer picture of reality.

This is why the propaganda concerning gun control, economy, education, environment, poverty, violence, military action, free speech, taxation, government spending, and a host of other valid concerns, can be misrepresented by various groups. This is also the reason I don't make my decisions based on surface and biased information.

On the other hand, honest facts (facts that are not manipulated and are not duplicitous) give us a better understanding of how things really are.

However, the truth is not always found for various reasons.
Personal bias keeps people from learning the truth.
Media control keeps people from learning the truth.
Tunnel vision keeps people from leaning the truth.

Even when truth is known, there are people who set their standards by their preferred prejudices.

As long as there is a willingness to be deceived, in favor of personal preferences, then truth will not prevail in a person's life.

Some people might consider me to be a mindless Bible thumper, but that is because they do not make the effort to really hear, understand my arguments. This is true in various areas of life.
