Steven to DMB: I've asked you three times already to please supply a definition of relativism with respect to truth.
Andre: You guys are talking in a high caliber philosophological language here, throwing names and concepts about the place a 6-year old child cannot understand it anymore...let alone my little self. If I make no sense just ignore me but it seems to me that, within the MOQ, a relativist position is only taken with respect to truth and not the other way around as you, Steven seems to imply. How can a radical empiricist be a relativist? What does a radical empiricist relativize??? My MOQ understanding of 'truth' is that, if it has greater explanatory power, is economical and produces harmony where, previously, there was none, then it is considered a high quality intellectual PoV...and continues to be provisional. What justifies this (truth claim?): its 'betternes, its quality... the ultimate expression of which we will never know...unless you come up with a complete definition/understanding of Quality! Sorry for butting in. I'll get out of you way now.
