Truth is a part of an element of a fact.
:P Honestly I have no clue, but this post really made me think.

This makes sense but it wasn’t exactly what I was looking for.
truth is that which is the case

The truth. The truth, or more well put, a truth is something that we perceive to be correct and is generally accepted and supported by “facts” of which stem from theories that we have created. Truth is worthless.
Truth is dependent on objective reality and is perfect and eternal, not on subjective perception which is imperfect and capricious.

I’m not sure about that.
The earth is approximately spherical.
Spheres have the sound “fear” in them.
It’s easy if you use math …

Sorry, no burn on you, but someone could then say “pi is between 3 & 4″ sure … its easy to use math to post a truth.

“Sphere” has the sound “fear” in it.

I like the first version better. :)

Is that true?

Why would that be a “burn on me”? Yes, “pi is between 3 and 4″ is another truth.

yup, I did.
Depends on your personality. I can perceive of a type of person who would be offended by that. No worries then.

I would agree normally. But nothing is objective(to me). I could call something that is cubic, or prism like a sphere. And seeing as you don’t see exactly what I see we could perceive them differently. Perhaps I don’t believe in spheres. If you look at microscopic levels and beyond most “spherical” things do have edges. Small, but still there

Yes — I didn’t remember what it was… it was me self-conconsciously trying to speak “truth” while considering the idea of truth, which leads to all these examples of a true thing rather than discussing what truth itself is.
This isn’t about the earth’s sphericalality. It is about the definition of
truth based on reason not fact.

The earth is approximately spherical, not exactly spherical. You don’t have to go down to the microscopic level to see that it is different from an exact sphere. “The earth is not an exact sphere” is another truth. But you do raise the point that it may be difficult to describe truth precisely using human language. That is, it’s not completely clear what “approximately” means in this context. But it’s truth that for some appropriate definition of “approximately,” the earth is approximately spherical.
Truth is a lisp for truce, like math is a lisp of mass. It is not really the unknowable absolute truth, just a peace treaty between our knowing mind and this existence we experience. True or false?

Truth is factual.

What then, is truth? Since you seem to know what it is
not
“Truth is not really the unknowable absolute truth,” you say?
it is true that i have a headache and that every sentence i type is the product of a mind with a really bad headache

I’d say that is true, but somewhat meaningless.
Truth consists of those conditions which prevail in the physical world.

Well it is what you said, in effect. :)
Why ISN’T truth the unknowable truth?
I don’t believe in “facts” or “truth”. Seeing as everyone is different with different perspectives I find that we can not know a truth. Also, I know I exist in some form but I do not know in what form that is. So the only truth I can accept is that I exist.

Mathematical truth is really more problematic than physical truth, because it depends on your choice of axioms.

If you already made up your mind that truth is subjective, then why did you ask the question? You are so wrong about that. Just because someone believes something does not make it true; they could be wrong.
Truth is something that you experience yourself - like hunger. No one can explain and make you understand what hunger is - unless you starve and experience it yourself.
Truth is an experience not an intellectual exercises.

If everybody in the world believes that the moon is square, that doesn’t make it true.

This is good, and seems the most true so far.
