Hi Mark,?
Need to step back a bit. What is truth??
Marsha?
Hi Marsha,
A species of the Good according to the moq.
This means there is no absolute truth - although if you want to be clever
you can insist that this statement itself is true, so there is at least
one truth candidate for being absolute (paradox)?- but truth?is more moral
than social patterns:
Hi,
I've never been clever. No reason to start now.
Truth can be verified without appeal to social patterns; building to form
a consensus of pragmatic values until the consensus is modified by further
observation. It may therefore be said that truth evolves toward a state of
higher value.
So at what moment in the process of evolving truth does someone make
judgements as to what is true? Don't some truths later get labeled false?
How do explain this?
Marsha
