Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for August 04, 2019

Never argue truth with a shot putter.

I’m sorry, is this just five minutes or the full half hour.

POINT / COUNTERPOINT!

“Gronk! You ignorant slut!”

The guy on the right has to have been really working out to hurl a boulder that size across the chasm.

“Truth wil set you free”???

Arguments over Truth are Fact or Friction.

Truth 1. Kill thy neighbor with the truth.

The truth hurts.

There is only one THRUTH. Per person.

Subtle.

A.K.A. “MY Big Book ’O Fables is better then YOUR Big Book ’O Fables!”

Truth is most endangered when everyone’s truth is true.

“What am I? Don’t know.” Master Suengsahn.

An argument isn’t just contradiction.

It can be.

No it can’t. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.

No it isn’t.

Yes it is! It’s not just contradiction.

Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.

Yes, but that’s not just saying ‘No it isn’t.’

Yes it is!

No it isn’t!

Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of any statement the other person makes.

(short pause)

No it isn’t.

Signs of a decadent society killing each others

Mr. “Pure Truth” got it wrong. You don’t kill your opposition, you need someone to demonize.

And that is how centuries of religious conflict began.

If one of those guys had blonde hair and a red cap, that gap would represent the distance between Buttercup and the sane world. It really isn’t to actual scale but, in a comic, one has to adjust for space.

Truth has always belonged to the survivor, not who was right.

The truth is

We’re all blind men describing the elephant.https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_poems_of_John_Godfrey_Saxe/The_Blind_Men_and_the_Elephant

I have faith that God can see the elephant and it’s why my faith is in Him.

gbars70: the truth shall make you mad…

It appears that the truth is crushingly heavy. No lie.

When the weight of his argument is the deciding factor aka might makes right.

Seems to be the human race in general lately, at least on twitter.

Wouldn’t know the truth if it hit him with a rock

Birth of religion and its inevitable consequences.

Truth conquers all.

The original Religion of Peace.

In the news, we see trump’s racist hate has spawned 2 more mass assaults on innocents. Make no mistake, the blood of the victims drips from trump’s hands.

“Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.”

I love truth. But, I love apple pie even more. A la mode.

A Roman governor once asked “What is truth?” and has been vilified ever since.

Yeah, the ones that you’re calling wild

Are going to be the leaders in a little while

This old world’s wakin’ to a new born day

And I solemnly swear that it’ll be their way

You better help the voice of youth find

“What is truth?”

.

Johnny Cash

Verily!

One person’s truth is another persons fake news.

Hard to believe that so many people read this and choose sides. Both guys are idiots. Neither has any understanding of the other. This is an analogy of our society, and if you think only one group fits this description you are part of the problem.

“Hmmph. Pure is truthier.” The caveman on the right must be a Cobarian.

A documentary.

The real trouble with truth is that so very few people really want to hear it. Truth tends to make people uncomfortable, insecure, or calls for action— none of which the average television audience wants to hear.

“Give me liberty or give me… comfortable lies! Preferably both. On a silver platter, please. Now.”

Excuse me for coming to the party late! But I just realized that rump was the best mind or lack of that the republicans had to nominate for president of OUR United States in 2015! Talk about pathetic! And you wonder why mitch the bitch is always smiling! He’s thinking " If I pulled this off and the American people are so dumb that they ignored what me and Putin did in 2016 can you imagine what me and Putin could get away with in 2020!

Can we know it’s the truth if a statement is prefaced by “Amen, amen, I say to you….” ?

And the PC folks area taking away our history because of WHAT!? Sounds like a Communist Plot to me

Noone could be judgier after that.

It’s impressive that he can throw the book that far.

And, has Impressed His Truth on his rival’s skin.

So. . .He threw the book at him?

“Everybody must get stoned.” B. Dylan. Rainy Day Woman 12&35

“Stone Free.” J. Hendrix. Song entitled the same.

People have been bludgeoning each other with the “TRUTH” for as long as there’ve been people. Often to death.

Comparison hurt.

The swamp is composed of the people who continue to vote in these members of Congress of both stripes. If you have worked in the government you would know that the real swamp is composed of federal workers who can’t be fired and political appointees.
