The Deflationary View of Truth

In response to this I have adopted what's called a deflationary view of truth which holds that you do not really need truth as a substantive property in order to affirm certain things. Rather than saying that it was true in the Jurassic period that the Tyrannosaurus was eating the trachodon you just assert it. It would have to be some sort of abstract object that existed and it was true at that time. So talk of truth is really only just a useful device for finite human beings who need to make what are called blind truth descriptions where we cannot say exactly the things that we believe to be true. And there's no real need to ascend semantically in that way.
