sometimes the truth concradicts one's preconceived notions about the world or one's self. when this happens one can either accept the truth or deny it. if one is going to deny the truth one must have a reason that seems plausible, anger is the most common way that people use to reject a truth.

Sometimes you get angry when you are told the truth because it opens up your eyes to things you didn't want to have to recognize or know about. Also, I think sometimes people fight so hard to hide the truth that it makes them mad when others can see it.

Humans are experts at creating fantasy worlds in which to hide from painful reality. The truth is often an unwelcome guest there. You get angry at the truth for the same reason you get angry when you get woken up from a pleasant dream.

Because sometimes what the truth is, Is not what you expected We sometimes set standards to what is true, and sometimes that truth is out of our comfort zone, and we get angry. Most the time its when a parent tells me something about someone, and I dont believe them, and then when I see it for myself I get mad. Cuz I didnt want to believe that it was true. Take Care and Good Luck

Because hearing the truth can hurt, and most people react to hurt with anger. Calm down and take the time to really think about that truth, write it down then write the reasons WHY its the truth. It can help in sooooooooooooooo many ways.
Good luck

What TRUTH are we talking about?
Nothing is a fact but a believe or faith.
Did man really set foot on the moon?
I our father and mother really our parents.
Did we do a DNA test or something.
No, we just believe them to be our parents.
It is only what we learnt or seen from someone else.
Even our eyes can deceive us.
Everthing is based on assumptions.
You can never derive or have the TRUTH.
Heard of one man's meat is another man's poison.
Imagine everything from man can be manipulated by man!

Anger is an emotional responce to an unpleasant feeling such as when your insecurites are rubbed the wrong way. It's out of this that erupts the whole moral philosophy/ettiquette of truth versus "little white lies." It's interesting to see people's different wishes/wants etc.

Because sometimes "the truth hurts". That's what makes some people tend to lie.....to avoid hurting others.

Because people don't always realize how lucky they are to be told the truth. People in general tend to be so hypocritical.
