Hi Steve, It's not Ant's quote about truth within the MoQ alone. It's RMP discussing multiple truths. It's also the correlation made between Buddhism's conventional reality and static quality. Conventional reality is most always described as the relative, practical everyday truth. I doubt if dmb makes any sense, even to himself, if he doesn't conflate and confuse epistemological relativism and cultural relativism. And his presenting an unsourced definition that begs the question? Wow!
