There are some people who believe that there is one absolute truth, and that truth is objective, and not depending on anyone's subjective opinion. However, increasingly, people are leaning into the theory that truth is relative to ones subjective opinion, and that there is no real one truth, but that it is all based upon one's perception. And often, I hear many young people take to this with spiritual matters. Some choose to believe in a heaven, but not a hell, or some believe that nothing exists at all. But is that the right approach to create your own truths? Today we will have Jordan Samuel, who grew up Catholic, but then decided that he was above what he was being taught as a young man, and decided to live his life based upon his own truths that he created based upon how he saw things. Let's hear what happened when Jordan died, and then came back to life in this state of believing in relative truth.
