Truth!!! (not on the mind)

(Childrens and idiots have souls, mind with those impression upon them, they must unavoidable perceive them and necessary know and assent to these truths , which since they do not , it is evident that there are no such impressions)
In this passage Locke says that if the truth is to be said and if they baby and idiots have souls and minds , they must not be blind by false opinions. As we all know we get blind by false opinions instead of the truth. Seems like that typical human mistake. When we have the truth right in out faces we still dont see it or act as if it was never there. In Locke opinion the truth doesnt exist and our mind is ignorant...Do you agree with Locke?

I agree with Locke that truth don't exist, we is to say that god does exist or don't, it's all in our mind that if we choose to believe if everything is true!
