Truth claim

In religion, a truth claim is an assertion that the belief system holds to be true. For example, a truth claim in Judaism is that only one God exists. Conflicting truth claims between different religions can be a cause of religious conflict. The theory of truth claims has been advanced by John Hick.

For the concept in photography, see truth claim (photography).
