Yes but consider: Do you or I have a privileged view on truth
   either though?

   i mean, you might - I really don't know. But the most I
   discover, the less I know. One thing that gets _easier_ over
   time, is noticing patterns that can cover more territory. I
   notice systems, then systems of systems, then systems of systems
   of systems, and the nature of truth, lies, falsehoods,
   mythologies, certainties, vaguenesses... they each have their
   OWN systems that intertwine, intermix, intermingle.

   Comprehending it all in its totality is, to me, the best way for
   fullest comprehension; allowing for nothing, not even lies and
   mistruths, and falsehoos, to exist outside of its boundaries.

   "This is true / this isn't true". The only answer I can find
   lies somewhere on the / yet for practical purposes, sometimes I
   feel the need to emphasize something as truth or something else
   as fiction.. yet which is it? With a 2 millimeter hole in my
   head through which all visual reality comes streaming in (and
   poorly at that), my ears and skin and other sense also coming
   into the mix... and a 3 lb ball of fat on top of my nervous
   system... I can only, in the end, say with complete honest, "I
   DON'T know"."

   Yet, I must declare things "as if" they're true or false at
   times; the urge to call out bullshit when I see it is very
   strong in me... yet my end goal is assisting someone else with
   their own sense of clear thining, even if it is different than
   mine.

   A practiced liar that is at the top of his game has my respect
   as much as someone struggling towards truth; it is the mastery
   or leading-towards mastery of whatever it is that they are drawn
   to that I respect.

   I also have to AVOID some people in the process, as my own
   limited faculties can be easily misled by just the right words,
   but I will still respect them from afar even in that case.
