Someone has had some formal philosophy training. ;-)

Would this be implying that not all possible truths are equal? Would this in itself not be a truth?
I believe that one’s perspective on truth should be the one that most closely portrays and explains reality. The simple fact of the matter is if I jump off a cliff I will die absolutely despite whatever I believe.
I’m probably missing something, not fully grasping your argument, and doing a poor job of presenting my own. I’m sorry for this. I’m rather tired and probably should put off responding to your post until I have more rest. As matter of clarification are you talking purely moral truth because that would completely invalidate my argument and I would need to reconstruct it...which I probably will not attempt to do until I get some sleep.
