The Price of Truth

They are simply inferior. It’s not complicated.
Truth is the providence of aristocracy, those of ability and of agency. It is not that those who cannot tolerate truth are simply different – it is that they are inferior.

Semi Domesticated Animals
(humor) I mean, if you can’t integrate with Aristotelianism, truth telling regardless of the consequences, reciprocity in all things, duty of the commons, self sufficiency, and the absolute nuclear family, then you’re just a semi domesticated animal that doesn’t have to turn around in a circle three times before lying down. … And yes, I know that limits the definition of ‘human’ to a single ethnicity’s married couples with children. 😉

by Anne Summers The inability to face Truth, and the ability to take comfort in
by Anne Summers
The inability to face Truth, and the ability to take comfort in an omission of Truth is causally dense and nuanced.
Think of the poor guy who has to have his heart ripped out and frapped several times before he can accept that the “love” of his life isn’t. Even then, sometimes Truth can’t be brutal enough to get through to him about her nature.
The pain one feels when they willfully and honestly stare straight into the Mirror (in the mythological context of soul, or self examination) is similar to placing flesh over an ionizer – only it radiates from the heart/chest cavity and gut. It’s not an condition where one’s tolerance of the experience is sustainable.
I believe those conditions are the origin for the practices of sacrifice, sanctifying, purification and baptism. And later on in the ritual of expulsion what’s further conceptualized as forgiveness.
Somehow, the evil of doing wrong, of being wrong had to be expunged, numbed, healed and renewed. Verity, Truth, kills those not annealed.
(Truth is a luxury of security?)
