(and I know that you are trying to figure out where the grub is...)

Jorj, that was the first thing I thought of when I saw your name pop up. The absence of an imminent grub was part of my shock at seeing you.

The real discerning factor for me would be whether or not the values are consistently applied not how they are derived.

Well, yeah, one would think.

We've had lots and lots of discussions on this thread regarding absolute values. I have continued to argue that it shouldn't matter whether rights and values and truth and principles and all that good stuff are fixed over time and space or whether humans work together to decide what they consider right. But the thought that there might be any fluidity or human determination of what is right seems to be critical to some. I don't presume to be able to relate to it. I just express it the way I understand it. You used the word, absolute. Maybe that qualifies you as an honorary PMP, or a sweet and cuddly OP, like me. <g>
