The Truth needs no defending, newsbone. Could it be that you feel a need to defend what you consider the truth because deep in your core you doubt it, therefore need validation by creating a tribe -- that shares in your beliefs? After all, why do people go to church really if not to gain validation by feeling a part of their tribe? (and I do go to church, well, a sorta new age-ish church, and I don't even pretend it's for any other reason than to share that time with my tribesmates).
"The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is"
--Winston Churchill
