Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for May 31, 2015

I am a rock, I am an island. He won because of the weight of his arguments, I guess……Rock on!……Hey, isn’t “pure truth” redundant?

Looks like he threw the book at him heh?

What’s that?A fossil.Did you write it?No.Well, it isn’t in my book, so it must be a lie.

“But what is truth ? Is truth unchanging law? People have truths, are mine the same as yours?”

“You want the truth? You can’t handle the truth”….Clearly the guy in yellow couldn’t handle it.

One is Twelver Shia and the other Wahabi Sunni.

This must be Belfast…

Buddhist Scripture says, “Do not believe anything just because it is in Scripture.” It further suggests that you check that and other things out and see if they work for you. Empirical religion! Who wudda thunk?

I only know it set me free.

@whiteheronJesus Christ Superstar!!!!

Christian cartoon !!!

Tell me about the Democrat vetting process.

Looks like “Truth is in the eye of the beholder”

You obviously know nothing about history or religions, and aren’t afraid to share your ignorance.

Which one is the Global Warming guy?

Well done Wiley.

Even a discussion on the topic necessitates a death sentence.

Of course, Wiley is simply saying that all other truths BESIDES HIS are wrong. Don’t you see that he’s worse that those he draws?

The moral of the story? “Might makes right.” And of course the guy in purple will now claim that his version of the truth is the only correct one, since obviously God was on his side and allowed him to win the argument.

“There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance — that principle is contempt prior to investigation”Herbert Spencer

Sticks and stones can break bones. Boulders can crush.

Early times of religion. Nothing has changed; while millions upon millions have perished in vain to prove who is continually right, wrong, good, bad or whatever.

Tao Te ChingPART 1. Chapter. 1. 1.The Tao that can be trodden is not the enduring andunchanging Tao.The name that can be named is not the enduring andunchanging name.

Spot on today, Mr. Wiley.

Hi Red,long time no Hi. Hello,hope you have a great sundae. Peace. :)

Truth always wins out.

Great cartoon…good comments

Yes, now we now how organized religion got started.

Not anywhere near a valid comparison. Idiotic to suggest it to be so.

Both books have a certain truthiness, it’s the factiness they’re missing.

What we need is less truth and more facts.

It’s not about “truth” — it’s about killing. Ironically they may actually be agreeing on what the “truth” is but they’ll never know.

The Rocky Road to wisdom, enlightenment and truth.

To somewhat paraphrase the Dalai Lama, I can recognize and respect your religion, as long as it does no harm or call for violence, but it still doesn’t mean I agree with everything you say or believe.

The problem is those who refuse to accept others, even for consideraton, and are more than willing to kill for THEIR convictions.

I didn’t call anyone an “idiot”. I called it an idiotic analogy. There are too many basic differences that should be apparent to anyone who reads anything other than the comics.

My Law of Gravity beats your Conservation of Energy!

So, guy on the left, “What do ya think??”

Like Neils Degrasse Tyson: “You are free ho have your own opinions, but not your own facts.”That may be a misquote, but the meaning is clear. Facts = Data.Truth = interpretation of Data.Truth can be wrong if there is not enough Data to make a valid interpretation.We have infinitely more data than when the “Books of Truth” were written. However well intentioned, by now there are ample facts to render a number of Truths incorrect and rewrites are certainly in order. I wouldn’t recommend a single adult alive today to have that responsibility due to the amount of incompetence and greed that seems to run rampant nowadays.

Truthiness.I Like the tip of the hat to Colbert.

Arguing over religion is like arguing over who has the best imaginary friend.

Truth is easy to come by. People will press it into your hands as you walk down the strip, promising it will be live, uncovered and in your room.Facts are more like money, though. You will be very likely leaving with fewer than those you held with certainty when you arrived.
