"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

- Robert A. Heinlein

Yes. I think most of us can agree that we obtain practical knowledge that is knowable in the social sense. We get bogged down on whether there can be absolutes. I think that there are absolutes and I believe that they are absolutes. I can provide evidence but can not prove them in the social sense of proving things to be absolutely true. Charity is good, greed is bad, etc.
