[MD] Alternatives to the scientific method

[ian glendinning]

David M, and Platt, you concluded this exchange thus ...

[Platt]
As Pirsig points out, everyone decides truth values for himself.
.... So the literalist and I can agree to disagree.

[David M]
Fair enough.

The hypocrisy of the literal is something I blogged about only last week.

I do not believe you believe David, that "truth" can be that entirely
relative and subjective ? This is surely not a point to agree to
disagree, except for a tempoarary pause ?
