Bottle the truth?

** If someone could bottle the Truth exactly how would it appear?

So what is truth?

 ***  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth -

Truth is most often used to mean being in accord with fact or reality,^[1] or fidelity to an original or standard.^[1] Truth may also often be used in modern contexts to refer to an idea of "truth to self," or authenticity.

The commonly understood opposite of truth is falsehood, which, correspondingly, can also take on a logical, factual, or ethical meaning. The concept of truth is discussed and debated in several contexts, including philosophy, art, and religion. Many human activities depend upon the concept, where its nature as a concept is assumed rather than being a subject of discussion; these include most (but not all) of the sciences, law, journalism, and everyday life. Some philosophers view the concept of truth as basic, and unable to be explained in any terms that are more easily understood than the concept of truth itself. Commonly, truth is viewed as the correspondence of language or thought to an independent reality, in what is sometimes called the correspondence theory of truth.

Other philosophers take this common meaning to be secondary and derivative. According to Martin Heidegger, the original meaning and essence of "Truth" in Ancient Greece was unconcealment, or the revealing or bringing of what was previously hidden into the open, as indicated by the original Greek term for truth, "Aletheia."^[2][3] On this view, the conception of truth as correctness is a later derivation from the concept's original essence, a development Heidegger traces to the Latin term "Veritas."

Pragmatists like C.S. Pierce take Truth to have some manner of essential relation to human practices for inquiring into and discovering Truth, with Pierce himself holding that Truth is what human inquiry would find out on a matter, if our practice of inquiry were taken as far as it could profitably go: "The opinion which is fated to be ultimately agreed to by all who investigate, is what we mean by the truth..."^[4]

Various theories and views of truth continue to be debated among scholars, philosophers, and theologians.^[5] Language and words are a means by which humans convey information to one another and the method used to determine what is a "truth" is termed a criterion of truth. There are differing claims on such questions as what constitutes truth: what things are truth bearers capable of being true or false; how to define and identify truth; the roles that faith-based and empirically based knowledge play; and whether truth is subjective or objective, relative or absolute.

Friedrich Nietzsche famously suggested that an ancient, metaphysical belief in the divinity of Truth lies at the heart of and has served as the foundation for the entire subsequent Western intellectual tradition:

 "But you will have gathered what I am getting at, namely, that it is still a metaphysical faith on which our faith in science rests--that even we knowers of today, we godless anti-metaphysicians still take our fire too, from the flame lit by the thousand-year old faith, the Christian faith which was also Plato's faith, that God is Truth; that Truth is 'Divine'..."^[6][7]

The English word truth is derived from Old English tríewþ, tréowþ, trýwþ, Middle English trewþe, cognate to Old High German triuwida, Old Norse tryggð. Like troth, it is a -th nominalisation of the adjective true (Old English tréowe).

The English word true is from Old English (West Saxon) (ge)tríewe, tréowe, cognate to Old Saxon (gi)trûui, Old High German (ga)triuwu (Modern German treu "faithful"), Old Norse tryggr, Gothic triggws,^[8] all from a Proto-Germanic *trewwj- "having good faith", perhaps ultimately from PIE *dru- "tree", on the notion of "steadfast as an oak" (e.g., Sanskrit "dru" tree).^[9] Old Norse trú, "faith, word of honour; religious faith, belief"^[10] (archaic English troth "loyalty, honesty, good faith", compare Ásatrú).

Thus, 'truth' involves both the quality of "faithfulness, fidelity, loyalty, sincerity, veracity",^[11] and that of "agreement with fact or reality", in Anglo-Saxon expressed by sōþ (Modern English sooth).

All Germanic languages besides English have introduced a terminological distinction between truth "fidelity" and truth "factuality". To express "factuality", North Germanic opted for nouns derived from sanna "to assert, affirm", while continental West Germanic (German and Dutch) opted for continuations of wâra "faith, trust, pact" (cognate to Slavic věra "(religious) faith", but influenced by Latin verus). Romance languages use terms following the Latin veritas, while the Greek aletheia, Russian pravda and South Slavic istina have separate etymological origins.

 ==========================================

The truth can not be destroyed or changed - it will stand forever unchanged!
People will attempt to alter or manipulate the truth - yet it is what it is no matter what is done!  The truth is Eternal like God 's Word!

While the Absolute Truth has been explored, expanded, corrupted, and at times even in the minds of the total controllers destroyed  - yet it will always be!
  Why do so many hate or dislike the truth?
 Well mainly because it disproves their false ideas and stupid ways of doing things...

The old swearing in at courts was the proof positive statement of getting at the Truth!
 " Do you swear to tell the Truth, the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth? " 

The truth comes into play each and every day! 

What we must learn to do is seek the Absolute Truth!  All else if a falsehood!

Here is an article on the truth of Noah's Arc: 

1981: Turkey

After studying the results of his work, Ron Wyatt concluded that the object was the remains of a ship, which exactly matched the Biblical description, and dimensions of Noah’s Ark. From his evidence, he believed that this vessel had initially landed further up the hillside, and that at a later date, this ship had been engulfed in a mudslide, or a lava flow, which had carried it down the mountain, to where it sits now. Its progress down the mountain appeared to have been stopped by a large rock outcrop, which had impaled the right side of the boat, holding the vessel in position, where it then became buried by the mud, and preserved.

In October 1990, Ron Wyatt accompanied by Richard Rives, attempted a mini excavation, using modified shovels, to gently scrape the outer surface of weathered material, away from the exposed ribs of the ship. When that task was completed, the different colors of the newly exposed rib material, could be more clearly seen, contrasting against the darker soil matrix.
