I personally work to find the facts surrounding issues and events. I don't fight the good fight for one side or the other on any topic, but I fight
the good fight to obtain and record the facts. Some one here has a signature that reads "does the truth really exist?" or something to that effect.
And the answer is a resounding YES. For every event there is a permanent and unmalleable action that takes place and records itself in the temporal
record. Not a single belief we have, not a single lie we tell, not a single act of rebellion, support, opposition or acquiescence can change that
actual event from how it really occurred, when it really occurred, and who or what was involved in it. The truth exists as the facts of that
event.
The question really becomes - "can the truth really be found?" While the answer to that question can in unfortunate, but luckily rare, instances be
NO! I firmly believe for 99.99% of the time it can, in fact, be found.
I fight the good fight so that I can know, so that others can know, and so that future generations can know the FACTUAL historical record of an event
. I may not be the one that actually finds the "whole truth", but if I can just contribute by supplying the facts I stumble on to, I will feel I
have lived a successful life.
That - and I just hate a liar.
