Well who decides what is true? Should it be a democratic process? Maybe .. to solve all our disputes.. a democratic vote.. surely God would approve..after all.. we were made in His image.. I wonder what religion or belief would win??

题目: Re: Well who decides what is true?

GTCharlie: That's not the point. The point is that objective truth exists and we have to find that for ourselves. And God is anything but democratic.

There are well-reasoned arguments for believing Christianity is True. That is to say that the information we find in the Bible, and in particular the New Testament, is true. A person is free to accept or reject the claims. That's basically how it works. But TRUTH stands alone and doesn't need anyone's approval or "vote." Truth is that which corresponds to reality. Mankind has no power over it. And since objective truth exists, all other claims to the contrary are by necessity false.
