The hypothetical situation I describe above presupposes that it is proven that someone told you something that wasn't true, knowing that it wasn't true, and knowing that you believed them. Unless we are absolutely sure about that, we cannot call it 'fact'.

Yes, what we're surely aiming for is a way of perceiving the world where there is _only_ discernment (i.e. _without_ judgement). Because judgement is personal and relates to the ego, whereas discernment is pure intelligence and beyond the personal.
I'd be careful with 'facts' though. In your example of the person who deliberately lied to you, it could be argued that your mere conclusion about the 'facts' of the situation was _already_ judgemental - before we even talk about the topic of discernment versus judgement!

I will talk again at the difference between discernment and judgement - I didn't elucidate it clearly enough here. Thank you for commenting :)
