In a controversy, for instance in history or religion, where millions of people believe one way and millions believe another, and heaps of evidence and facts are provided on both sides, how does one determine within oneself what is true?

Are we always subject to our own subjective experiences? Or is there a way to ignore such subjectivism and determine a thing"s true nature?

Examples that i"m thinking of include" controversies in history (the whole "the victor writes history" sort of thing, and religious dogma and principles of faith (existence of God, original sin, nature of afterlife).

Any thoughts on this that try to answer these questions in a fruitful manner will be appreciated! Thanks.

FY 2002 VA-HUD APPROPRIATIONS BILL REDUCES RESOURCES FOR PUBLIC HOUSING AND HAMPERS EFFORTS TO IMPROVE HOUSING QUALITY

Eight and a half months after President Bush released his Federal budget blueprint, which proposed cutting the Public Housing Capital Fund by $800 million and eliminating the $310 million Public Housing Drug Elimination Grant program, Congress finally passed a HUD budget that will result in a funding reduction for all public housing of approximately 3% from last years' amounts. On November 6, the VA-HUD Conference Committee agreed to the Conference Report on the FY 2002 VA-HUD Appropriations. The House overwhelmingly passed the bill, 401-18, on Thursday, November 8, 2001. That same day, the Senate passed the measure, 87-7.

While the bill is an improvement over the original ...., it still leaves agencies and their residents woefully shortchanged. The Conference Committee rejected the President's proposed dramatic cuts .
or was it an avalanche?

lynched by muslims in his constituency (I should know he's my MP) He had to call off several meetings for public safety. Muslims can be capable of extreme violence over relatively trivial issues as we saw in the 2001 summer riots and what the hell did we do to deserve 7/7 and the liquid bomb plot. Is this racist or a relevant point?.

Lift your right foot from the floor.

Make clockwise circles with your right foot.

Now write the number 6 in the air.

Your foot changes direction!

Why does it do that?

People often want help in deciding what to do regarding relationships, child care, pets, etc. I do my best to answer these types of questions with honest mature answers though it may sometimes seem like 'tough love'. Do you think people tend to go with advice even though it may not be what they want to hear?

I had a dream last night that my father gave me as a gift a large box of huge cigars. The cigars were each probably 2 feet long. At first I didn't know what I would do with them, but after unwrapping one I realized they were made of chocolate.

I had another dream a few days ago that someone offered me some great steak to eat.

By the way, in case someone wants to interpret this sexually as Freud might have done, I'm heterosexual (lol!).
