Public Agreement to Truth Eddie R is a difficult concept to defend. The dominant culture in the United States 170 years ago thought that blacks were inferior and that was THE TRUTH, or scientists that believed that because women were generally smaller in size than men, that meant that they had smaller brains, incapable of dealing with complex decisions such as voting or rational thinking. People vary so much that having every individual in a given society whether a Western society or an Eastern society agree on what is acceptable public truth is impossible. Like the saying goes in Spanish "Cada cabeza es un mundo," and "Cada loco con su tema", every person's truth is open to questioning. What is true for one person, one culture, one country isn't necessarily the truth for all people, all cultures and all countries. That is why in the world there are different topographies, with people adapting to that particular land and developing cultures that allow survival in that environment, what works in one social system is disastrous in another social system. So truth in absolute terms does not exist, only adaptable societies. What is truth? Coca-cola is delicious and refreshing says the Coke selling people, Coca-Cola is bad for your health say the health industry. Which is true? ask the person that drinks and loves Coke, he will say it is good. Ask a health food practicioner and he will say it is bad. Who is living the truth?
