In
the Objective reality of today we can observe that truth can become expressed
objectively as the scientific description of any objective observable property
of the objective reality of the created, existing things on Eart, because the
developed rationality of human beings and the ability to describe each existing
created elements, that sims to exist on Earth is observable and scientifically
describable
The
subjective reality, is described by the outcome of the meaning of the word
employed to refer to the subjective reality, word such us: good against evil,
The God of Creation against the God of religion, truth against lies, eternal
life against eternal death of the person, etc. Here we share with you some
definitions or theories of truth
Correspondence
theory of truth
Correspondence
theories emphasize that true beliefs and true statements correspond to the
actual situation. This type of theory stresses a relationship between thoughts
or statements on one hand, and things or objects on the other. It is a
traditional model tracing its origins to ancient
Greek philosophers such
as Socrates, Plato,
and Aristotle.
This class of theories holds that the truth or the falsity of a representation
is determined in principle entirely by how it relates to "things"
according to whether it accurately describes those "things". A
classic example of correspondence theory is the statement by the thirteenth
century philosopher and theologian Thomas Aquinas:
"Veritas
est adaequatio rei et intellectus"
("Truth is the adequation of things and intellect"),
which Aquinas attributed to the ninth century Neoplatonist Isaac Israeli.[16][17][18] Aquinas
also restated the theory as: "A judgment is said to be true when it
conforms to the external reality".[19]
For
coherence theories in general, truth requires a proper fit of elements within a
whole system. Very often, coherence is taken to imply something more than
simple logical consistency; often there is a demand that the propositions in a
coherent system lend mutual inferential support to each other. So, for example,
the completeness and comprehensiveness of the underlying set of concepts is a
critical factor in judging the validity and usefulness of a coherent system. A
central tenet of coherence theories is the idea that truth is primarily a
property of whole systems of propositions and can be ascribed to an individual
proposition only in virtue of its relationship to that system as a whole. Among
the assortment of perspectives commonly regarded as coherence theory, theorists
differ on the question of whether coherence entails many possible true systems
of thought or only a single absolute system.
Three
influential forms of the pragmatic theory of truth were
introduced around the turn of the 20th century by Charles Sanders
Peirce, William
James, and John
Dewey. Although there are wide
differences in viewpoint among these and other proponents of pragmatic theory,
they all hold that truth is verified and confirmed by the results of putting
one's concepts into practice
An
early variety of deflationary theory is the redundancy
theory of truth, so-called
because—in examples like those above, e.g. "snow is white [is
true]"—the concept of "truth" is redundant and need not have
been articulated; that is, it is merely a word that is traditionally used in
conversation or writing, generally for emphasis, but not a word that actually
equates to anything in reality. This theory is commonly attributed to Frank
P. Ramsey, who held that
the use of words like fact and truth was
nothing but a roundabout way
of asserting a proposition, and that treating these words as separate problems
in isolation from judgment was merely a "linguistic muddle".
