There is a contest old as Eden, which still goes on - the conflict between right and wrong, between error and truth. In this conflict every human being has a part.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
No longer is there a quest for the truth so much as there is this apparent need to present both sides of an issue even if one is nothing but lies and distortions.
Every true, eternal problem is an equally true, eternal fault; every answer an atonement, every realisation an improvement.
What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind? They are the irrefutable errors of mankind.
Truth forever on the scaffold, wrong forever on the throne.
There is a soul of truth in error; there is a soul of good in evil.
Truth is immortal; error is mortal.
Truth is eternal, unchanging, though circumstances may and do operate to give a different colour to it, in our view, at different times. And truth will prevail, and those who do not yield to it must be destroyed by it.
Today the fate of humankind is even more crucially linked than ever before. The boundaries between the problems of 'others' and 'our' problems are being increasingly erased.
There is but one right, and the possibilities of wrong are infinite.
People like to say that the conflict is between good and evil. The real conflict is between truth and lies.
