lorraines truth

In conducting ourdaily affairs, we are often tempted to find safety in numbers. If we are indecisive, we side with the majority, reasoning that if so many people believe something, it must be true. But, truth is not elected democratically. In simplest terms, democracy means that the majority has a right to decide. So, democracy is nothing more than a fair system of governance in absence of a better alternative. But to think of it as a barometer of truth is a blunder. The truth is that the ‘majority’ has nothing to do with truth.so what exactly is the truth?is it what we hear or see.or perhaps what we bielieve is true in our hearts.so instead of siding with the majority and exercising too much of political correctness lets just stand for the truth!
