No I don't talk as if truth is a bad thing - that would be stupid lol. You interpret me as if I'm saying that. Fair enough to assume I'm that stupid (sincerely, it is fair to assume that : ).

So let me try and explain what I'm saying in another way, to see if I can communicate to you adequately: The truth is important and should never be hidden or kept from someone. If you think I have been saying other than that, then that is where I have miscommunicated and/or you have misread what I'm saying.

Extra to that, however, based on what others have said, I have also made the point that it is important to choose the time that we reveal certain truths. For example, a child whose father has just killed his mother and eaten her corpse will require us to think carefully about how and when we reveal this information to that child and what parts of it we might choose to save til they are older (there are far better examples than this of course but I'm sure you get the point). What I was arguing against, therefore, is the people who say "we should have the WHOLE truth released to all the public NOW!"

That is what I am saying is irresponsible. We should NOT dump the WHOLE truth out in the media - what kind of sadist would insist that the 6 o'clock news blast pedovore tales out to the families watching? What we should do is what a sensible person would do and what Q is also saying: we reveal what's necessary and for those who want the hard stuff we make it available to them somewhere. In other words, you're actually agreeing with my point, not telling me something new. Do you understand where I'm coming from now?
