If we pretend that we can give equal attention and honor to all truths, we thereby neglect the truth that we are finite creatures. To promote both personal and communal integrity we must deal with the dilemmas attendant to our being finite creatures and deal honestly with the fact that we cannot give equal attention and honor to all truths. We must give more honor and attention to some truths than to other truths; as warranted by the present circumstances. In the presence of an accumulating flood of truths we must develop ways in which to focus our attention upon the truths which are most relevant to our particular circumstances at each moment in our lives. It is often not how true, wonderful and sophisticated a truth may be which is most important. It is often how relevant, timely and practical a truth is which is most important. Quantum mechanics is not very relevant to fixing the breaks of a car. The skills of a neurosurgen are not very relevant to saving the life of someone who has stopped breathing because of drowning. Vector calculus is not relevant to balancing a check book. Often it is not more truths or more sophisticated truths which we need. It is bringing available truths into the presence of situations of need which is important; and knowing when to let go of truths which are not relevant and are not likely to be relevant in ways which justify any present attention being given to them.
