¶ Truth
Index Entry
We may say that thinking about the truth alters truth, but only to the extent of defining it. We may always clarify and redefine the truth by making it more comprehensively considerate and more incisively exquisite. Truth alters truth only by refining the definition. The substance of the sensing and instrumental control of the physical means of communication are always refinable and trend toward the ephemeralization of doing ever more with ever less, but you can never get to the exact, most economical statement of the truth for the very communication will have ephemeralized to pure metaphysics. Truths are like generalized principles: interaccommodative and nonintercontradictory. Truths are special case realizations of the generalized principles; by these very aspects are they discovered to be truths.
