Theory of Oppositional Truth

For years now, I have been contemplating this world of opposites in which we live. I like to call it my "theory of oppositional truth" which is an idea that includes more than just temporal life but also the eternal life. Thinking about both concrete reality and abstract reality requires both scientific fact and imaginative faith. In that context, truth is the simultaneous balance of all sides: possible, impossible, probable and improbable. Yet, it is more than balance because all sides are true at the same time. Two things (which seem opposed) can both be valid.
