Will to power vs. Will to truth

During class we talked about the will to power versus the will to truth. We used to the example of the master having the will of power to own his slave. Versus the slave who works for the truth or his life to live. Another example of this is the government versus religion. The government has always been and always will be about the will to power. Especially in the United States anyone in the government field is obsessed with power. The government, especially in the United States, uses its power as more of a threatening system than a comfort. The will to truth is seen best with religion. Some people who chose the religious path are always on a path to seeking their "truth". Religion is not always seeking for the power it is seeking the humble truthful path. This is the will to power vs. the will to truth.
