RE: There Are No Absolute Truths (Part 2)
Making a truth claim (an absolute) about the fact there is no absolute truth. Anyone not seeing that it is a self contradicting statement needs his head checked.
I am not making a truth claim. Dude, stop trying to imply things so you can make yourself sound right. It is intellectually dishonest. At least read the article. I said specifically;
//Many people claim that the statement "There Are No Absolute Truths" is self defeating. This is erroneous since the sentence itself implies that the author is aware that even his own statement cannot be absolute. Most people that assume that the statement is self defeating is because they believe that the author, much like them, holds the belief that absolute truth exist.//
When everything else around us smells like shit, we first owe to check our underwear first.
Read the post before your next comment.
Is it absolutely true that there is no absolute truth?
If you say yes, then its a contradiction. If you say no, you are saying "it is not absolutely true that there is no absolute truth"...Madness!
Foolishness passing as philosophy.
No because there are no absolute truths
nop. It is the nature of the human experience. and yes. it involves madness.
philosophy 1.0 is dead.
physics (epistemology aka philosophy 2.0) killed it.
you are really stubborn and going in circles with no real arguments other than "hur dur, if we don't have absolute truths then then life is absurd"
which FYI.. it is.
No words. "Nature of human existence" as an explanation to saying "it is not absolutely true that there is no absolute truth" and feeling consistent about it? Go home you are drunk.
Take a look at this for example. There is a scientific experience that demonstrates that even if you look something it changes the nature of reality. If you can't demonstrate an absolute truth then everything remains subjective, including your own self.

If there is no absolute truths then every other truth is relevant. This statement doesn't have to be intrinsically true but relatively. Stop thinking in black and white. You hurt yourself.
