Verisimilitude

Definitions: (1) the appearance of being true or real; (2) in philosophy, “truthlikeness” is the question of how close a proposition is to truth or to another proposition

Derivation: Latin, “seems probable”

Observations:

• The ‘uncanny effect:’ When seeing something fake, the feeling or judgement of how close it is to being real. Or hearing some theory, or bit of news, how true it seems to be to the truth.
• The Spirit of Truth {also known as the ‘Comforter’ and ‘the new teacher’] is the soul’s manifestation of living the fruits of the spirit.
