A logical framework that treats truth as open-ended—subject to revision, expansion, and evolution as new information, perspectives, and contexts emerge. In an open truth system, no truth claim is final; all are provisional, awaiting possible modification by future discovery. This system doesn't deny that truths exist; it denies that we ever have the final word on them. Open truth logic is the logic of science (theories improve over time), of learning (understanding deepens), of wisdom (certainty is postponed). It's the logic of "we used to think X, now we think Y, and someday we may think Z." Open truth systems are humble, adaptive, and intellectually honest—and deeply unsettling to anyone who wants absolute answers.
Example: "She operated within an open truth logical system, always open to new evidence, always willing to revise her views. Her certainty was provisional, her conclusions temporary. Some found this wishy-washy; she found it honest. When new information emerged, she changed her mind—not because she was inconsistent but because she was consistent with openness."
