However, any builder knows that if a building is going to last it must be built so that it is not crooked, but straight up and down, so that the pull of gravity won't weaken it. This is determined by using a plumbline which shows up anything not perpendicular to the ground Now the law of Truth is like the pull of the law of gravity for anything which is crooked and untruthful is doomed to de struction. Buf, you say, have we anything like a plumbline to determine what is true and what is not? Is there a standard some unshakahle gauge b: which we can know the truth about this world in which we live?
