truth and falsity

 arises out being-in-the-world; Newton’s laws were neither true nor untrue before humans existed.

Heidegger now pushes this idea to a controversial extreme. For Heidegger, truth and falsity exist only wherever Dasein exists. Before the birth of Dasein on this planet, Newton’s laws were neither true nor untrue. (At the same time, Heidegger insists that this does not make truth subjective or relative, since Dasein does not create the truth, but finds it in the world as soon as it is born.) This view of truth runs counter to the views of Husserl, for whom the laws of Newton, if they are valid at all, are eternally valid even in the absence of humans.
