Marsha: 'Notion of truth' does not exclude truth being relative. Obviously. Additionally, since we don't want to confuse anyone, RMP has stated clearly: RMP (2005): "The Metaphysics of Quality is not intended to be within any philosophic tradition, although obviously it was not written in a vacuum. ... The Metaphysics of Quality's central idea that the world is nothing but value is not part of any philosophic tradition that I know of. I have proposed it because it seems to me that when you look into it carefully it makes more sense than all the other things the world is supposed to be composed of. One particular strength lies in its applicability to quantum physics, where substance has been dismissed but nothing except arcane mathematical formulae has really replaced it."
