Abstract
Every day we ask ourselves if what we believe is true or not, the answer can be given in only one way. Sometime we do not want to believe things because we do not have facts or reason that back up what we believe. When a truth is found using acts, it is known as an empirical truth (Solomon/Higgins, 2010). Which means that the facts in finding the truth were facts gained from experience (Solomon/Higgins, 2010).
