TRUTH

Truth has many defintions and philosophical meanings:
Truth as correspondence
Truth as coherence
Truth as utility
Truth as belief
It can be derived from:
Sense experience
Instinct
Reason inductive
Reason deductive
Authority
Intuition
Revelation
Faith
Dictionaries usually list 12 or more categories for truth.

How do we make an ultimate judgement, and by what means can we separate
the sources of our truths???

When you say there are different versions of truth, then which
particular version of truth are you using for truth as you have used in
that statement?

Its a very simple question chaz and the world is still waiting for your
answer.
