Truth
The topic of truth is spoken about in two ways: either as deep, important wisdom, or as a certain desirable quality of any statement, no matter how trivial. Religious thinkers sometimes speak of the Truth--with a capital "T"--as meaning an entire worldview, or of some deeply important insight, or even as God himself.[1] By contrast, for contemporary philosophy, the topic of truth is a rather abstract, technical one in the philosophy of language: they study what we mean whenever we say that any casual claim, such as the claim that I just arrived home, is true. For discussion of deep Truth, we recommend that you consult the articles religion, wisdom, enlightenment, God, and worldview. The following article concerns the abstract, technical topic.
