= Why Truth Matters Ch.1 :  = ==

By what means do people create antinomies to truth according to the authors of this reading? What point are these authors making? Do you agree?
 * People often don’t believe that truth matters, and sometimes they chose to accept the truth, and most of people choose to believe part of the truth, and make up the rest of it, so it will satisfy them, so it’s in the middles of lies and truths. **
 * The authors are trying to prove the reason that truth matters, people always try to ignore the truth because it might be hurtful **
 * I agree with these two points discussed by the authors: **
 * "Humans are the only entities in the entire universe, for all we know, who have the capacity to make truth their object." **
 * "Truth can be seen as a major part of the human heritage." **
 * It is true that at the end its the human's decision on choosing weather to believe it or not, and to care about knowing the truth or not. and it is in my opinion an important part of any human's life. **


 * Antinomy: **
 * 1-a. contradiction or opposition, especially between two laws or rules **
 * 2-a. contradiction between principles or conclusions that seem equally reasonable and necessary; a paradox **

Provide examples. How does the technology help humans look into another perspective? Technology helped human beings to develop, so it surely helped them to explore things that they couldn’t explore because of their limited senses.
