    If people disagree about what truth is, what is absolute about it? It means truth, like ethics, is subjective.

    Re: truth. Who decides who is right and who is wrong?

    That’s right. Everything is relative. Everything is subjective. Is THAT an absolute?

    And that’s debatable, isn’t it?

    you taught an ethics class?

    Maybe to your fellow KKK members

    facts exists whether a human mind is there to experience that fact


    Because human minds can differ in how they perceive the nature of that fact it does not change that facts reality.


    Get it


    human perception is not going to change the nature of a chemical reaction

    There are facts


    who determines the nature of that fact ?


    only those capable of leaving their personal percept out of the equation

    Those that only seek truth and have the integrity to accept what actually IS in stead of seeing only that which embellishes what they want to be true.


    there are humans who seek that


    there are humans that seek to destroy that


    no philosophy of mankind can destroy that there is actual truth based on fact


    if man never existed the truth of facts would still exist


    there would just be no one to try and pretend actual truth and facts are not real because some humans don't think about them or value them



    reality exists whether mankind is there to ponder it or not


    facts matter


    truth matters


    whether mankind cares to understand it or pretend it away

    thus proving that unlike truth, your assumptions are not absolute......

    and perhaps more consistently true if there are not human minds there to experience it......

    how fucking stupid of you pp

    the only thing about facts that would not exist if mankind didn't exist is the effects of assholes like who create lies to deny facts so you can harm others to your own perceived benifit
