One is averse to the truth not because we think that it may not be the truth but because it stands against our own physical, mental, intellectual, social, and egoistic convenience. And so we espouse the logically absurd ideology that truth is a matter of belief. One who cares for truth more than anything else, who wants to know it at any cost, is ready to accept that truth, although unlimitedly multifaceted, is still an objective reality; either something is true or it is not. Those who say that truth is a matter of belief don't have the courage and humility to search after the truth; they are too engrossed in their insignificant affairs considering them to be very important - more than finding out the truth. They believe that they are very significant; a logical absurdity indeed.
