What's true, then again, what's false?

I think God put me here to learn more than anything else. I guess in my years of ignorance, the one thing I am learning is how little I know. Lately, people have informed me of falsehoods and rumors that seem or be rampant in society. We hear of many of these through curiosity and sometimes through anger and contention. 

I am learning to check out the information and to relay what I find as the answer, truth and fact. If people choose to ignore it at that point, then all I can do is pray that their eyes are opened to the realism of truth. I'm not sure if I am supposed to be the voice on these things, but I will do what I can when I am prompted. 

I want to say more but I feel the urge to hold off. I think it is so I can learn more facts. I know that Heavenly Father uses us as talking vessels for the truth. I also know that we are not to act in defense of the truth under contentious circumstances. I pray that if you find yourself in a questionable situation of defending the truth, be it religious or otherwise, that we will remember to pray and ask for assistance to know what to say and how to say it. God loves all of mankind even though he doesn't like all that we do. He is here to help us know what to say and most important, when and how to say it. I know that I've been directed to speak the truth when people are ready to hear it. I pray that someday, we will be able share our truths without provocation, and especially without contention.
