anti-truth, truth and lie

1. Reflections on the truth, the anti-truth and the lie.
What is truth and anti-truth? What is a lie? The word "anti-truth" was used on 13-9-1997 by Caesar Squitti and as a nomen nudum by Miekal And in 1985.

If one lies and another person investigates the statement, what can one find?: The statement was not conform the actual situation. The investigator concludes, that the statement is a lie. An act - the lie - was done as a (matter of) fact.

E.g. one states: "A fruit is on the tree outside." Looking outside, there is a tree, but no fruit. A lie or anti-truth? That there was a lie, is a fact.

E.g. one states:
"More than 70% of mankind eat slaughtered meat." Checking some consumerstatistics of all the countries and the meatproductionstatistics, one can say: it is a fact. But was it a lie? No, it was not a lie. Was the statement the truth? I do not think so, no. Was it an anti-truth? Well, it was no lie... but yes, it is the anti-truth.

What is truth? I think, that truth is: virtue ànd fact. Truth is not only a fact: when I - my sense-organs - confirm it (fact). The truth is virtuously and factually. It does not fools ourself and does not fools another (God and neighbour).

Jesus Christ said: one scripture-scholar lifts from the scripture a good treasure and a bad treasure. God and Jesus want us all to lift the good treasure from all books of faith, also the bible, and fulfill it. Truth is the good treasure. Thus you can not fool yourself and can not fool another. I hope, we will be able to fulfill the truth...
