Not sure what you mean by "non-humanitarian absolute rulings", but the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) has made a huge effort in recent years to make it's historical records more accessible to the public. While the Church has never flat-out lied about it's history, there are certainly some things that it has preferred not to discuss. In the past five years, the Church has opened up his historical records archive to the public - anyone who wants to look up any document the Church has is free to do so at it's Historical Library in Salt Lake City. The Church has also published many statements that clarify many beliefs, practices, and historical events that were previously considered taboo.

So, why did they prefer not to be completely forthright with information before? Simple fear. The Church faces enough persecution and misunderstanding as it is, and it seemed easier to keep the more questionable things quiet in order to avoid confusion and misunderstanding.

Is not truth a function of perception and perspective which has nothing to do with actual truth as is the case with the Mormons for if you believe it is true then it is true to you but not in reality?

No. Truth is an absolute, not a function of perception. Mormons are firm believers in an absolute truth, regardless of what ones personal beliefs or perceptions might be. Truth is independent of people's opinions - for example, if nobody believes in God, that doesn't mean He ceases to exist.Check out the "Related Links" below to see some resources regarding what Mormons say about what truth is.Another answer:Belief is a function of perception and perspective; truth is not. I can believe a thing is true; you can believe it's false. Neither belief impacts truth."Actual truth" and truth "in reality" (your terms) are synonymous.Related links:* Spencer Kimball on truth (byu.edu): speeches.byu.edu/reader/reader.php?id=6169* John Taylor on truth (lds.org): lds.org/manual/teachings-john-taylor/chapter-23?lang=eng&query=truth+eternal
