That is correct. I am guessing that I know some partial truths, that is about as far as it goes : )
When one swears to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, they are not swearing to explain everything there is to know (understand) about reality, are they? Does the word truth in that swearing then mean nothing?
They are swearing to tell the truth as they know it. Their testimony while being truthful, from their perspective, may have no relationship at all to an objective truth. Maybe you need to read some Sherlock Holmes too : )
I think both these questions you are asking are closely related, proof and truth. Aside from trivial examples, I am not capable of the absolute determination of either. There will always be some uncertainty, however small it may be.
“Then you know no truth?
That is correct.”
Sorry to hear that. Guess there’s no reason to continue our discussion then. I certainly cannot believe anything someone who knows no truth says.
Wish you the best, though.
