In my mind, wisdom has that King Solomon quality about it. I don't disagree that wisdom encompasses the ability to discern truth from lie, but wisdom embodies far more. I seek a term that more precisely describes the ability to discern truth from lie. Perhaps discern is the best that English has to offer.
