POLL: Do you believe truth exists?

Bear in mind that if you answer ‘yes or ‘no’ you will invoke the indignation of BaGua Monk who claims that neither of these is a viable answer – that you cannot in fact know what you believe or what you do not believe. Personally I think that everyone who comes to this forum is capable of knowing what they believe and what they do not. That’s why I’m running this poll. Feel free to remain anonymous. I’m not here to pry into your reasoning. I just want to see how many people feel that they are capable of knowing whether or not they believe something exists. For my part, I believe it exists and I’ve voted accordingly.

Voted Yes AND No.

Thanks for the golden oldie Boffo but it would be better placed on this thread. There is no metaphysical conversation going on here. I'm just trying to determine if people are capable of knowing what they believe. (Looks like Suffered is a bit confused in that area.)

I voted yes.

For some reason, Goodnews and Boffo's votes didn't register.

unless they involve time travel, then I can go on forever

I noticed that BaGua hasn't weighed in here yet either. D'ya suppose he's having second thoughts?

Coit will be here.  Right now he is probably practicing his line-dancing.

He's famous for dancing around questions asked of him.

What an absolutely stupid question.

This should be an easy question for you John.

You spend your days on this very forum calling people liars.

Surely you can answer with a simple yes or no.

I voted yes also.....looks like we were the only ones voting.....The question must have confused them....

Not at all.  It depends on what is meant by truth and by exist.  Words are never self-evident.

I'll take stab...I believe truth exists. However, moreso OUTSIDE and AWAY from religion than from within. I do not believe that someone(Jesus,whom there is no solid proof ever existed) walked on water or rose from the dead 3 days after being nailed to a piece of wood, then moved a huge rock all by himself and magically flew into the sky 3 days after he died. I respectfully call BULLSHIT to this kind of bullshit. If that is truth than my turds are diamonds.

Yet in the end you will cry out to Him for mercy.........truth be known

You don't know that. Don't project your fairy tales on me.
