Answer these questions with your own personal perspective.
1. Do you think knowing the difference between truth and opinion is important? Defend your position.
For me, yes. It is crucial to know the difference between fact and opinion, since Truth refers to something that
is real, opinion on the other hand, is what we believe or thinks about something. a fact is a reality and is
based on evidence. While an opinion is only a viewpoint that cannot be verified. People utilize information to
form their own opinions about a certain topic
2. Do you think it is possible that statement of opinion can help establish statement of truth? Explain your
answer.
Yes because reaching consensus or having people agree on a shared views is another method of establishing
what is true, although this methods has a limitations. Sometimes your view is closer to truth or might assist
you in obtaining the truth you seek.
3. Do you agree with these lines: “Truth hurts” and “Truth will set you free?” Explain your answer.
__Yes I agree, it is really necessary to tell the truth even if at the end of the day you will get hurt. The truth
might be painful, but in the end you will be at peace with yourself. giving someone the truth even if it may
hurt the takes discretion. It only hurts until you accept it, and then it sets you free. It only hurts because _the
pain is leaving your brain and being replaced with the reality. You must live a life where you can be honest,
not just with yourself but with others.
