Video

The video really explains what truth is and it shows us just how much the world has lied to us. We are lied to everyday in the world and yet we conform to all its lies and go with the flow. We never try to open our eyes and really see it for what it is. I tend to feel that whatever I see in the world from my perspective is truth and yet this is false. The professor really opened my eyes to seeing that what we believed was the truth was a lie. He also brought in different people so that we can see what they felt the definition of truth was. Some people beat about the bush about what truth was; others thought that it could not be defined. I feel this is very interesting because this is a question one feels that people would have the answer to. However, most people, even the best professors of the best universities, could not give a good answer. When the pastors and evangelists gave the definition it made a lot of sense. I really enjoyed the video. I liked the fact that he brought in peoples different views of what fact and truth was. I do not feel that it looked like he was accusing people of false ways they look at truth; however he was guiding our train of thought. He was looking at it from a Christian perspective which, I feel is the point of the truth project. I like the fact that he did not say everyone else was wrong, but that he said the Christian answer made the most sense which was true. I also like the fact that he in cooperates his students in his lecture. I also like the fact that it is a free opinionated class, no one is judged but rather people are corrected. He is a great lecturer.
