"Truth is that to which community ultimately settles down. Analyze and evaluate this claim" What is the truth? Is it facts? Is it an opinion agreed upon by the community in order to fit specific moral or religious values? Is it something that is just accepted as fact? What most people believe is truth, is a belief agreed upon by the community, which is a group of people that interact amongst themselves. An argument that can arise is whether truth can be found through the use of science or can it only be reached through divine intervention. Since the community is obviously not settled down, then truth still has not been found.
Truth, if what scientists discover is in fact truth, then it has several barriers it must cross, among it are language, ethics, perception, and emotion. For example, Darwin was able to prove that evolved from other species, however, first he had to convey his message in words so that people could understand what he was saying, then, people's ethics, or moral beliefs stirred up their emotions, which distorted their perception, eventually blinding them from the truth.
