"This is my truth"

[tapu]

Where do you come down then on truth as relative or absolute?

(I usually position myself squarely at "relatively absolute," rather than "absolutely relative." Meaning, I have no argument to support a position either way. This one drives me nuts.)

Truth is, more or less, relatively absolute depending upon the subject matter domain. Whether that 'truth' is comprehensible or can be apprehended may be up for question but there appears to be an actual world 'out there' and while we may not have *direct* access to it, much of the time we can treat our approximations of the world as 'true enough' to work with.
