Can we ever be sure we know the absolute truth about a historical event?

No, I do not think we can know the absolute truth about anything. Everyone has a different perspective on events even if they go through the same event. So, even if we have a person's account of an event it is still influenced by them rather than an exact overview of the event. It's hard to know if it's absolutely true. For example, even people that grow up in the same house will remember and record events differently.  My brother and I talk about vacations differently even though we were there together.

    This is so true of history. Remember that when you need to know the truth of something, the place to turn is learning through the Spirit. It's great to learn all we can about history and science and all the great things, but when we're confused, it's important to turn to Heavenly Father for our answers because that's where there's absolute truth.
