The death of Truth

Truth is dead. While there are many things which are ultimately true, Truth as a concept has perished in our society and our society is perishing as a consequence of that. People may want to deny the  truth of gravity, but if you jump off a tall building with out a parachute, in a matter of seconds you will crash to the ground. Not happy with your sex and want to change it, no problem... The truth is that even if they castrate you and invert your penis, you will still be male though not much of a man. You will never be able to bear children, and if you change your mind, too late, you won't be able to father them either.
This isn't a rant about sexual perversion though, this is about modern media and the catastrophe we are witnessing in the world today. Over the course of the last few years, the press has been caught short on many things. We have been outright lied to so often that the media is no longer trusted, nor are they worthy of trust.
If you can't believe the things written today, what about the stuff they wrote only a few years back? Could we trust CNN in 1990, but not now even though many of the players are the same? What about Cronkite? he used to end with "And that's the way it is". We now know that many times it wasn't.
Looking back, our trust was misplaced. What about further back? Many people today do not believe the holocaust happened. Further still? How about the lies told about the origins of our own civil war? Or the truth about the origins of the Atlantic slave trade?
Ultimately, what about the origins of Man, the earth, and the presence of GOD? There are people who actually believe that the force of Star Wars exists, more still who believe the fables of so many religious teachers who co-opted Scripture and create cults.
If near instant access to information makes the lies of modern media easy to debunk, it would be just as easy to post lies debunking the truth.
Christians live by faith. People following L. Ron Hubbard have even more faith. There is evidence of the things told in Scripture. No evidence of the things told in dianetics or the book of mormon.
The media today cares little that they are caught in lies. What matters to them is undermining the pillars of truth.
Couple that with a failure of an education system, and the recipe for disaster is nearly complete. The truth is still out there. No one knows how to look anymore.
