We could argue about this subject until hell freezes over and it might take that long for the truth to be told.

"for the truth to be told"

Reply:
Hopw do we know 'truth'? I thought your phrase "to be told" was interesting--is it to be 'told to us" by some ancient text?

The sheer number of claimants as to 'knowing the one true truth' is so many that one must doubt all of them equally.

I mean, if I told you that a snake came up to me in my garden and started talking in fine Aramaic and that what he was to say would determine the entire future of the human race, would you believe me? But if I told you this was written in a book 2000 years ago, does it make it more believable? I mean, snakes can't even pronounce Yiddish properly.
