History Religion and Truth

By Alles Santos

"The truth will set you free ." Could this be a political statement? Knowledge is power, and if you wish to stay in power, it stands to reason that you would not want your slaves or peasants to have true knowledge. In today's society there is unique ability to be informed, to gain knowledge we did not have before. Because of our new freedom and technical abilities, an obscure human history becomes more clear to us. Finding the the truth of things is a slow process that comes in stages. There will always be mysteries, we are not omniscient and we care a great deal about truth, we search for it. The truth about ourselves and our history satisfies and gives proper order to reality. We discover new truths, and old beliefs go by the wayside. This small book creates a different story of history and the companion website (historyreligionandtruth.com) lets readers debate, then decide and update the original story. Maybe we can better find truth through an open reasoned debate that takes place on a website where readers can discuss and select what is true. If in a courtroom we find truth by the consensus of the jury, maybe we can find truth through the consensus of our readers. The original essay is constructed by looking at historical events in the context of new information, and contrasting this with human individual and social traits.
