FORMAL TRUTH AND FALSEHOOD

Formal truth and formal falsehood are originally found in the mental pronouncements and in the act of judgment of the mind, not in the concepts and in the apprehensive act of the mind. The mind is formally true if not only when it assents to a true proposition, but also when it rejects a false proposition as such. The mind is formally false not only when it assents to a false proposition embracing it as true, but likewise when it rejects a true proposition as true.
When the mind does not assent to a true proposition or to a false proposition, or suspends its assents because of doubt, the mind is neither true nor false. It is the same case when the mind suspends its rejection of a true, or of false proposition.


Reaction
It is said that true is that what is in your mind conformed to what is in the reality while false is that when what is in your mind does not conform to reality.

THE MORAL PRINCIPLE

When we try to reconcile opposing moral opinions we usually appeal to shared ethical principles. Yet often enough the principles themselves are opposed. We may then try to reconcile opposing principles by clarifying how we arrived at them. But since most of our principles are cultural inheritances, discussions halt at a tolerant mutual respect, even when we remain convinced that the other person is wrong. What is needed is a method in ethics that can uncover the sources of error. After all, even culturally inherited principles first occurred to someone, and that someone may or may not have been biased. So there is considerable merit to investigating the innate methods of our minds and hearts by which we construe – and sometimes misconstrue – ethical principles.


Reaction
Why do people always argue on one thing?
People always argue because of their different principle in life. They always want to be hear not to hear.



Bernard Lonergan (1904-1984)

Relation of the creatures to the creator

Every reality is composed or constituted of the two inseparable elements; esse and essence. The act of being (esse) is an act which is the ultimate foundation of reality. Without an act consequently, being will not exist nor all the perfections, may the being acquire. For being to acquire further perfections like color, shape size, texture and weight, it should be in act, it exists. In order for a being to exists, it must have esse. Esse is the source of the existence of being. It what makes a thing “is”. Thus an act of being is the foundation of all realities. Furthermore, without esse, nothing will come into being.



Reaction
We differ from each other in a way we possess the degree of perfection. Human beings though many are not identical. Human beings though many are not identical. We are unique in our own way. Who absolutely perfect, GOD.

TRUTH

Truth is one of the central subjects in philosophy. It is also one of the largest. Truth has been a topic of discussion in its own right for thousands of years. Moreover, a huge variety of issues in philosophy relate to truth, either by relying on theses about truth, or implying theses about truth.
It would be impossible to survey all there is to say about truth in any coherent way. Instead, this essay will concentrate on the main themes in the study of truth in the contemporary philosophical literature. It will attempt to survey the key problems and theories of current interest, and show how they relate to one-another. A number of other entries investigate many of these topics in greater depth. Generally, discussion of the principal arguments is left to them. The goal of this essay is only to provide an overview of the current theories.

Reaction
I believe that truth always prevail at the end whatever instances occured. As Plato said "Man must seek the truth and once the truth is discovered in purely speculative field, it must serve to find the solution of practical problems, Philosophy must render man morally better..."
