Thank you so much for your post!

ckilmer: Then I think it would be appropriate to say that in the cases of both theological and philosophical truth-- truth without love is not truth. Inversely, love without truth is not love.

Indeed, but I would capitalize it. Truth without Love is not Truth; Love without Truth is not Love.

Dataman: Truth is that which corresponds to reality.

Also very interesting. One's concept of reality, i.e. what is "all that there is" will have everything to do his concept of truth or Truth.

That is why I suspected messing with "reality" is a back-door attempt at "changing" truth. Ultimately, there exist first principles from which reality can be "realized." Once someone questions those first principles, he undermines the platform from which the questions were launched.

The simple truth definition, BTW, is borrowed from Dr. Geisler.
