Yes you are right there are some extremely good story tellers here at the moment, and as long as we are aware that the story line is fiction then its not a problem. However once people start to believe into the core then you can debate if there freewill is taken away. Tread carefully.
In answer to your origibal question.
No matter how painfull TRUTH is...no matter how brutal TRUTH is...
TRUTH is what I want.
I will always side with TRUTH.
Truth is my true freind, and TRUTH will be with me in time.
She will always unfold before me, in eventuality.

Viking ,
Often I wonder about many things and learn from many things. But whenever I get stuck I recall that Christ`s words in this situation ;
know the truth and it will set you free.
Also more of a good advices he gave was in regard to this conversation and that is ;
by their fruit ,you will know them. You can `t reap grapes from a fig tree and reverse.
I paraphrased it.
I tend when read or listen others to feel the spirit behind the words and demeanor . Then I see what kind of fruit they bare. Is it love, truth,wisdom,discernment,knowledge or lies,sugarcoating,mistreating, downing,insulting,blinding.
It is not easy doing this since nobody`s perfect ( starting from me) but that`s the way to protect myself from fraudsters.
For example I highly doubt in posts you set over here ,when you do copy paste thing, but I read them to see if they hold a value or not.
I see through the veil that you my friend are the soul wishing and longing for truth and freedom and in your research you do your best even if you stumble sometimes. That`s why I appreciate you Viking.
We`re all brothers and sisters and if but a one wishes to get out from this collective mud and mire ,then I will be the first to cheer them up!
Remember that old saying;
united we stand , divided we fall?
That`s just like that. Plain and simple.
