“Real gold fears no fire.”
The slogan of the TruthFire illustrates a critical aspect of truth- that truth can withstand examination. That may seem obvious to some, but many people are hesitant to allow truth claims to be tested freely without censorship attempting to protect them.
The analogy- Gold is one of the most sought-after elements in the world. However, whether an element is real gold is often initially hard to determine. Fool’s gold, or fake gold, exists aplenty. Consequently, it must be tested to determine its authenticity. So, the metal must be put into the fire. If the metal is fake, the fire will consume the metal and reveal it for what it is. However, if the metal is truly gold, then the fire will reveal it as such. And furthermore, if there are any impurities, those will burn away, and thus the gold shall be purified.
Truth works the same way. Real truth can withstand scrutiny. When put to the test, truth will always come out unscathed and refined. But falsehoods, when put in the fire, will be exposed and destroyed. There is no need to protect truth from scrutiny. Open and honest investigation will reveal the truth, for real gold fears no fire.
