Screw you and your claim to access to objective truth

Assuming there is an objective truth, people are far and wide out of their jurisdiction making claims to it. The often made mistake is that opinion is submitted in the form of truth. This deception leads to a corruption of society and to the concept of knowledge as we know it. If we arent careful, opinion will be taken as an accurate substitute for truth and we will be left in a world of illusion without even the desire to pull the veils away.

Many people ask the question, what is the point of knowledge anyhow? Why does it matter if we know the truth or if we live in a world of illusion? I'm not claiming that its wrong for us to choose illusion over reality. I am claiming, however, that it is important for us to be aware of the choice we are making. All our options must be made clear to us before we choose how we wish to live our lives if we are ever to make any decisions that are worthwile.
