mLine 9:
Line 9: − − ==Misconceptions about Truth== − In the popular media, the concept of "Truth" has a clear liberal bias. News reporters and journalists give equal support to all sides of an argument, even the objectively incorrect and biased sides such as the perspective on global warming that is adopted by [[Al Gore]]. Some liberals even incorrectly define "Truth", without a single reference to God. For example, [[Merriam-Webster]] defines "Truth" as ''a judgment, proposition, or idea that is true or accepted as true'', and ignore the fact that simply accepting something as true does not make it true. Most dictionaries miss the essence of Truth by leaving God out of their definitions.

==Opponents==
Many opponents of truth have arisen over the course of human history, such as [[communist]] [[China]] and [[Adolph Hitler]]'s [[Nazi Germany]]. Such enemies typically advocate the wide use of [[censorship]]. Incidentally, many [[liberals]] also advocate the use of [[censorship]] in the form of [[political correctness]], e.g. refusing to describe someone as crippled or as spastic when they plainly are, out of some misguided notion of politeness. Former [[Vice President of the United States of America|Vice President]] and notorious [[liberal]] [[Al Gore]] made several untruthful claims in his documentary [[An Inconvenient Truth]]. Many [[liberal]]s mock Truth by coining terms like "truthiness" ([[Stephen Colbert]]) to deride the real nature of truth.
