Is There One Truth or Billions?
Is truth absolute or relative?
As a truth seeker, inevitably, the topic of truth comes up in conversations. This is especially true when talking with people for the first time.
Driving a taxi for four years gave me plenty of opportunities to bring up this topic with strangers, in addition to life in general.
As a Christian living in an unbelieving world, being able to defend the faith without sounding dogmatic or out of touch with modern pragmatism and secular understanding isn’t easy.
At some point in my informal apologetic and evangelic efforts, God gave me a question to ask the unbeliever, the scorner, and the doubting.
Does it sound more reasonable that there is one truth or billions?
Most people would honestly respond with, “One truth.”
I would then ask, “Then what is it?”
I would explain that maybe I was wrong in believing the one truth was found in the Holy Bible, yet in general, it seems logical that there was only one truth, whatever it might be.
Is Physics the One Truth?
There have been some hard cases in the mix. One time an older gentleman who was selling me an electric scooter was convinced the one truth was found in physics.
