Truth and how you feel about it. | Started by: Hetfield on Apr 01, '13 23:32 |
Hetfield has been roaming the streets for a while and has been listening to various conversations provided by the civilians and mobsters of the four cities, pondering upon what he has heard, he speaks up...
I have been listeneing carefully to the citizens of our cities and I think one particular subject can be applicable to our ways and every day life in all honesty; it seems that people get truth mixed up with their own personal opinion.
For example If i were to say to you and provided you with great validity and evidence that red is th best colour in existence, but because your favourite colour is blue you can't really accept it because it crosses with what you think and believe. (I know it is a fairly poor example but you get the idea) It is therefore irreleavnt surely? |

I'm not sure what question you're really trying to pose or what point you're really trying to illustrate. |

Maybe red is the best color in the world, how ever if you say that to a color blind person he would not know how to respond. |

In that case, 100% no. If something is the truth or a fact, opinions don't come into it. Opinions are for subjective matters where there is no 'right' answer or fact or truth. |

The truth is always best and if it makes some one mad then that person cant except the fact. The old saying "The truth hurts" comes to mind. Now as far as your example thats not the best one. |

^^^^^ That too. In this thing of ours Godfather of a city or District will always over rule anything that is said or done. |

I can't really argue with your reasoning Phil_Steak because that is the truth, I would want to say well I am right and any authority higher than me is wrong in this situation, but that would just lead to conflict in opinion, and my eventual death i imagine. It's the truth and oath I have sworn to that what my Godfather says is truth and therefore final. |

Are we talking about orders, in which case you follow without question or hesitation, or a discussion here? |

A godfather telling an associate the sky is purple doesnt make the sky purple. It makes the Godfather confused, and prehaps senile! |

She listens intently to the conversations and begins to share her opinion but stops. |

Let me say this.. Just because I do not agree with the idea that a Godfather (no one in particular) has the power and ability to change how their members (zombies) view the world and feel about actions/inactions/opinions does not mean that I would not do as told even if I didn't agree with it. I can follow orders and have my own opinions at the same time. I'm talented that way. Sucks that some people feel free-will and the ability to follow instructions cannot co-exist in our lifestyle. (No one in particular of course.) |

It seems no matter what we know for definite and what we will be shown so that what we say is irrelevant, personal opinion will get in the way regardless. |
