How does the truth not make sense? I remember processes and solutions for algebra problems that made no sense to me, yet the solutions were -- as I was assured by teachers -- accurate and truthful. In a more metaphysical (spiritual?) sense, I've been assured by committed believers that they know the Truth, but what they explained made no much sense to me. Perhaps I am the problem. The truth is absolute and rational. People are irrational. Well, I am.
Exactly my thought RT. If it's the TRUTH then surely it makes sense - otherwise how would you know it's the truth. Would you just trust someone else to tell you it was the Truth and accept it? I wouldn't.
I've had conversations with many people over the years who (supposedly) had clued into the Truth of things. They all sounded more than a little crazy to me. People are definitely irrational - can't argue with that one. As to the Truth..... Rational - most probably. Absolute....? That's a whole other ballgame.

i think it's Algebra: if not for having to study it, most persons would happier... and not worry about Truth...
