Truth as a Bigger Crap

Richard Belzer defines The Big Lie, in his book UFOs, JFK, and Elvis: Conspiracies You Don't Have To Be Crazy To Believe, this way: "If you tell a lie that's big enough, and you tell it often enough, people will believe you are telling the truth, even when what you are saying is total crap."

I entirely agree. If, however, we are repeatedly told the truth a thousand times, it becomes a bigger crap. In the first place, the truth does not exist. We are still searching for the truth. It is endless. The search of the truth, however, is man's most noble of profession. Poch Suzara

"In the first place, the truth does not exist."

Is that statement false, then, sir?

I do not understand how Jesus is an imagination...how men later worshiped the same person they accused and nailed to the cross. It is just so illogical...UNLESS resurrection happened (the very foundation of Christianity - refute it with solid evidence and you will kill the Church, the Church that has been living for 2000 years). I wonder how you would explain that phenomenon for i am sure you do not believe in the resurrection.
