There is no such thing as “your truth” or “my truth”. There is only THE truth. This language of “my truth” is a cutesy way of attempting an end run around absolute reality, making truth a sentimentalistic, individualistic thing. It is the idolatry of one’s self. It tries to reject God as the one who defines truth, instead putting one’s self in the place of God and creating its own reality. This way the person can reject the absolute moral standards that exist outside of him and which are binding upon him. But then the person with this approach invariably turns back to other people and hypocritically tries to bind them to his own self-invented moral standards, as if they aren’t allowed to do what that person just did by creating their own reality.
