'Aletheia ' - true, we fight - really? to which we seek - or ever?
encounter so many periods in history when the truth is zakłamywana, the story is being shifted to the specific conditions philosophical. Clearly, we can say that the point of view depends on the point of the seat. But why is that the historical truth, natural, moral is so little wanted, respected, and consequently rejected?
Since antiquity, philosophers of old - loving wisdom, seek the truth. Man is naturally drawn to what is true and even though it once may not deceive deception, it does what is true is the highest value in their price. So, if subconsciously looking for what is true, the actual
- where is my mother myself and others, manipulation, and life in the current world - this quasi-reality? Deceive others by manipulating becomes a tool to achieve the goal of power. But that's another matter, often put at somewhat above the noble truths, and thus achieved and shameful ways. And much more appreciate a truthful man than a fraud.
theory for this going up - true life, as a natural way, should be much simpler than life in delusion. And so we often go the easy way out after a false way - which, however, requires a lot of treatments and efforts to "safely" to balance in this dimension. So
choose the path that requires greater effort and maneuvering in a "pseudo-worlds' cities follow the right path. Why do so voluntarily make your life and other lives? And is it probably will interfere with the universal desire for more and easier then living, without any problems and liabilities? But this is uncharted corners of the human soul, psyche ...
For Justin, Martyr, a philosopher of the second century after Christ, the term 'filalethes' (lover of truth) is so rich in meaning as it is often used. If anyone is in favor of love of truth - must follow. Love of the truth by Justin is strong, since for him - the word of truth is not some abstract, but a living person - Jesus Christ. Just as a martyr's attitude is influenced by ocenyobrony and death of Socrates by Plato. The Martyrdom of Socrates has played an important role in early Christian thought, because it was associated with the image of Plato - a righteous man who was crucified. Defence of Socrates, had one thing - he says Justin in Apology: I know that what I say is true, and ask that you declared to not look at what
else.
Many times the truth is hard to terminate, painful and difficult, but it should speak. It is like a purifying catharsis, like fresh breath. And said: "Only the truth will set you free" (Jn 8:32).
Justin begins his Apology from the contrast between the philosopher who loves the truth, a lover of the human and Christian is the first author that combines the name of the Socrates with Christ. Plato, Origen and Clement praised Socrates. People have never been so aware of their need for truth than in the second century after Christ. Yearning for knowledge and thirst for truth has brought many pagans to Christianity. Gospels bring good news for those who are on the night of error. They bring knowledge of the Father who is closest to the truth and the truth itself. Truth is a property of God and is called light, goodness, life and hope. Father of Truth reveals Itself. Justin, as Plato separates the truth from the habit, and insists that the truth of the Old Testament prophets
is older than the one we preached philosophers.
As you can see - look at recent events in our country (mainly applies to books and home Zyzaka Paul L. Walesa) does not pay to tell the truth, and even more loudly (because You can lose your job, position, to be cursed by the "living scoffers"). And so we see attempts to "hang" IPN
who is not anything to do with the matter, but characterized by the totality of seeking and speaking the uncomfortable truth about these ancient and recent, past times, our motherland.
But we can ask for Pilate - and "What is truth?" Thing, the concept which objectively exists, for which there is evidence whose existence can not be denied.
'say that there is, something that did not exist, is false. To say no to what is that is, but about what you do not have that it is not, is true. "- Aristotle" Metaphysics "
" Everything points to the truth, it appears, leads to it. " - St. Thomas
