Yes. "Truth" has been replaced with "MY truth" which is a phrase that I hold in absolute contempt.
There are a number of truths that I don't particularly "like." I just turned another year older - don't like it. I am obese - don't like it. There's nothing to prevent people from being stupid - don't like it. I have to fix my car - don't like it. No religion or philosophy in the world says that I have no LIKE the truth, nor is it said that Life Is Fair. But acknowledging truths offers me the opportunity to make choices. I can choose to get old with dignity and Grace. I can choose to lose weight and work on getting fit. I can choose to forgive people's stupidity - exercise compassion. I can choose to live without a car or (not likely ever) buy a new car.
Truth - real truth - has no debate, negotiations, or alternatives. Truth, like Chrit being The Way, just is.
It's rather vital that we understand the concept of "viewpoints". There are few "facts" (truths) in the world. Most of our world is made up of viewpoints (such as "vaccines are dangerous"). We must look at evidence not oratory.
