  • Truth only exists beyond a reasonable doubt.
    You can only ever prove something beyond a reasonable doubt.
    To paraphrase Plato, how can we know that what we perceive through our senses is, in fact, truly what exists?
    It would be unreasonable to see it any other way, but this does not mean it is entirely factual.

    Our entire existence *could* be fabricated, our eyes can see an object, and our hands can feel an object, but does that mean that object is *actually* there?
    It would be rediculous to assume otherwise, as we all trust our own senses, but does that really make what we all see, smell, hear, taste, and feel entirely real?

    Who's to say there can't be an alternate existence out there? One that we are not aware of. Perhaps there are an infinite number of existences, all happening concurrently.

    However, there is no way to prove any of this, and there is no way to prove any part of our own existence is entirely factual. Therefore, truth does not exist, and we can never be 100% sure of anything.
    Truth only exists beyond a reasonable doubt.
