Something that has always troubled me: The "acid Test" of truth. How to be sure?.

I have no answer. I knew the answer many times over when I was younger and each was defeated as I grew older; I am out of answers. But as far as the religious go, faith is enough. But that is true of every faith and their many sects into the thousands, each at odds many times over amongst those called by the same moniker, such as Christian or Buddhist. If each of the many thousands believed they did not have The Truth, would there be any fight, argument, or even a label? Even humanist feel they have truth, compiling an ethos based mostly on Evolutionary Theory. "Here are the things that will help the human race survive and the herd should follow."
What is truth?
What is truth?

Whoever said this...
"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well..."
Any guesses?
How about answering some of my questions.

Answering those questions with Jesus, does not create truth. Truth is to be as Christ, not just know Christ by faith and belief. If you do not have his love (not knowledge), "you are nothing...you have nothing."

All belief in the supernatural is based on irrationalism so truth is literally relative. What do you want truth to be and that is it. In such a world truth is based on affirmation not confirmation so the more people who support a position then the more likely it is to be true. The herd will follow anything that the most people agree upon...

Not all things are visible, there is such a thing as the 6th sense.
Supernatural can also mean Metaphysical to some minds.
