I want to share a thought I have in regards of "what is the Truth?".
Is it matter of perspective or not?
Let me express a hypothetical situation I 've been thinking:
```There are two persons, one with a condition that doesn't allow him to feel pain (Congenital insensitivity to pain and anhydrosis(CIPA)), and another that is normal. Both of them are hit with a stone in the head. So, the person with CIPA would not feel any pain, while the regular person would be squirming on the floor. ```
So, pain would be a matter of perspective, right? One feels it the other doesn't.
But, both of them got hurt, so the truth is that both persons were hurt. Hurt is the truth.

Thoughts?

you might be moved by the momentum of the brick hitting you, and maybe dazed by the jolt to your brain.

but you wouldn't FEEL the pain. your brain would not register the pain as it was.

Yes.

you'd be injured, but you wouldn't register it

The damage is the truth. It is measurable. Pain is someone perception of it. It is opinion.
We can both be standing in front of a picture. That is the truth. Whether or not it is a good picture is perception.

I guess it depends on your definitionof hurt.

Yes, I should have used damage.

then of course. Not feeling pain doesn't make you bullet proof.

facts don't care about your feelings.

hahaha, @Poppy Rider, your example is shorter.

😉

@Mimi I'll use damage, rather than hurt

Would leaving Afghanistan be a good idea? When we left Iraq, it caused a power vacuum and ISIS came into power. Will we be responsible for the deaths caused by a neo-Taliban after we leave?

We can’t stay forever and I don’t think those countries will ever have stability.

Best to leave and just have a travel ban for people from those countries.

.....

I would say, extreme migration policy for them.

Oh of course. Destabilizing the Middle East *never* comes back to bite the West in the ass

Also when we try training/arming them so they can fight terrorists they always end up using it against us.

That's because the CIA likes to pick extremist groups

Like it's their weird fetish

See Acts17Apologetics latest Videos....

?

They talk about Islam with quoting Islamic Sources....

And its just THAT bad, he also made a video about ISIS

Basically there's been several points in history where the West could have backed moderates or extremists, and for whatever reason the dudes in charge pick the extremists pretty much every time

There is no extreme Islam, only Islam.

So the only Christians are biblical literalists?

Not the majority of them.

Hey, I didn't say that, that was a Quote from the Turkish Dictator

1/3 of Islamists believe in the death penalty from leaving the faith. That’s 600 million of them. More of them believe in other crazy shit.

Its not the Islamists its the Muslims

Just keep them out of the West and it’s not a problem.

Problem is: We don't shame them, when we should.

Right, which is why they need hefty reform, which was my point
