title: What's the point of the Boolean object?
body: <p>I am reading through the Mozilla Manual on JavaScript, and I come to this point in my reading, <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Boolean" rel="noreferrer">Boolean object</a>. I can't see a single use for them. What's their point? Why wouldn't you use just <code>true</code> and <code>false</code>?</p>
  
  <p>By the way, I don't know Java at all and I'm not afraid of learning new things that consequently why I'm trying to learn JavaScript. I'm a PHP programmer, a back end guy, and I'd like to learn how to do some front end work, so I'm reading the <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Guide" rel="noreferrer">Mozilla JavaScript Guide</a>.</p>
