One of the main conflicts that is increasing in society is, whose truth should prevail. There is no right side, when opposing views are argued over truth.

The conflict shows a lack of understanding of what truth is, how it is produced and what its significance is.

Truth is the communicated representation of unified reality. Unified reality is all reality consistent with the objective realities of the universe that define life and solutions to problems.

No one is going to create an alternative to the unified reality that exists, because no one is going to create a substitute universe. Yet all conflict with truth requires a substitute for the universe. Of course, that's because the method changes, not because anyone directly tries to synthesis a universe.

The primary problem is an attempt to align realities upon something other than the universe. But even then, the pretense is to properly align realities, while the problem is improper methodology.

Now days, the most significant problem by far is to claim to represent facts. Both representing and claiming facts are diabolically opposed to producing truth. Truth cannot be represented; it can only be developed in a process that allows evolution of realities.

To proclaim truth is analogous to saying, let there be a tree. It's no substitute for hundreds of millions of years of evolution.

Instead of proclaiming and imposing, truth demands rationality as the proper methodology. Rationality is alignment upon the objective realities of the universe. Alignment means explaining the relationships to relevant realities, so people can decide for themselves how correct they are.

That means any mechanism that does not allow people to decide for themselves is an imposition, while truth cannot be imposed, it can only be evaluated. Evaluation evolves truth.

In place of deciding, explaining and evaluating are required to increase or improve truth. That means there are no facts involved. A fact is something that is imposed rather than explained and evaluated.

There are all sorts of figurative representations including quasi truth. The point here is to understand that a figurative representation does not eliminate the need to explain and evaluate to determine the meaning and significance of truth.
