Foolish Naivete of Voltaire
Is ever a notion more inescapable than that of truth? Ever the search for man, to find truth in the hope of eliminating vice, ignorance or perhaps fallacies in deduction.
Yet the significance is put on the absolute quality of truth itself, rather than the appearance of it. As if truth is so reachable. So what then is the biggest folly? The one who searches for the truth and believes the 'quality' more real and necessary than the appearance of truth; or the the one who believes in the existence of an absolute moral quality of truth that maybe evident in everyday life.
I, then, ask Voltaire, acclaimed philosopher of the past, why does deception and manufactured consent pass for the truth?
If true, we swim in deceit. That is our truth.
