You said — “Truth Is.”
While I would go along with that statement, considering that I recognize this follows from our “Creator God is” — that doesn’t mean that others, who subscribe to the post-modernist thinking of today are going to go along with it. They say that they construct their own reality from their own their own thinking and choices and “truth is” whatever they decide it to be (mind you, I’m just speaking from their viewpoint, not mine).
Now, knowing where you’re coming from, I would say that certainly “truth is” — but that’s only because our “Creator God is” — and He forms the *basis* for that objective and real truth (outside of ourselves and any perception that we have). I say that knowing also that you’re giving a so-called “reality based truth” which differs from that given by our Creator God. But, even so, there is a slight common ground in the recognition that there does exist such a thing as objective and absolute truth, which is separate from the individual and their perceptions of it (and whether they exist or not). That’s not “true” for the post-modernist, though...
But, going down that line of “truth” that you’re talking about, from whatever facts (and their interpretation) that one may have for a 4.5 billion year evolutionary timescale and scheme of things — that kind of “truth” will have no ability to prevent 12-year old kids from having sex and homosexual marriage being as legitimate a life-style as a one man/one woman marriage.
However, the truth that proceeds from the Creator God does have that ability to prevent these things from happening, from the inherent authority which exists from that Creator God.
