The Assault on Truth
To be objective is to be impartial and mature. It is to be rigid and right, nonpartisan and neutral. Objective truths are recognized as facts; they are recognized by means of history, precedent, laws, and science.

It is the revered standard by which the entire legislative system roots from. It is often sharp, brilliant, devastating, and unrelenting. Above all, it is always correct. Truth is humbling and necessary. Truth unveils the face of valor and it allows for justice to thrive. Knowing the definition of truth, and what it stands for, also helps us define the antithesis: falsehood and fiction.
