<<RE: But Absolute Truth.... yada yada.....>>
Absolute TRUTH, from one human being's perception, may also be another human beings' perception of Absolute UNTRUTH..
That is why I specified the "Individual" search for TRUTH; yes, it defies logic to say "There is no Absolute Truth".
Why?
Because a belief, or a concept, or an idea, that leads one Individual to their own Absolute Truth is solely based upon that one Individual's perception of "TRUTH" itself.
But "Absolute Truth" is NOT based upon one person's belief, or concept or idea, of what truth is; rather, Absolute Truth should be a Universally accepted TRUTH --
Accepted by all individuals and not one person.
If ONE person with great Authority or Power, in a "Society" of Individuals, forces their beliefs or ideas (their concept of "ABSOLUTE TRUTH") upon the weaker individuals, the result would most certainly be an Autocracy, or Totalitarianism.
History (and the present) has taught human beings that what is Absolute to one may NOT be absolute to another -- therefore, it is NOT ABSOLUTE.

P.S. The only "Absolute" I know is the Vodka, and I shall now indulge myself with Absolut...... on the Rocks. |
