'True' and 'False' seem to be such clear and simple terms, opposites and mutually exclusive. In reality, however, we may inhibit, in much or even most of our knowledge, the fuzzy area between the two.

In life, people need to label everything as a reason to communicate with each other regardless of which language they speak. It is also necessary to label everything because society has the desire to know what different objects are and how they work. As well as having a name, we also class things as being true or false which are terms that do not coincide and are two words which express opposing concepts. As humans we have accepted these facts but there are different situations where and object can be seen as both true and false depending on its perceivers.
Religion has been around for centuries, in many different cultures and has been practised throughout the world. People in every religion have beliefs which differ from other religions, and they believe that their religion is the truth. In this situation, you have many groups all believing the ‘truth’ but also thinking the other religions are inaccurate or wrong. So, technically there are many truths, and true and false do coincide through two or more different views. If this is the case, shouldn’t everything be classified as ‘true’? If people can believe in different things and knowing it is the ‘truth’ with others believing otherwise, then wouldn’t this confusion of ‘true’ and ‘false’ be the same in all situations? For religion, it seems that there is either no such thing as ‘true’ and ‘false’ or both terms represent the same meaning.
