Hi Marsha,

I wasn't setting up a trap or anything, but I can see how it could  
look like I was trying to do some Socratic B.S. I was really just  
trying to help clarify what it is we are talking about.

I think dancing is just fine. Can you think of doing philosophy as  
dancing? Among guys it does probably seem like a battle some times,  
or a game with winners and losers, but maybe it can be a dance.

I am interested in your interest with multiple truths, and I still  
wonder if you mean something like "(2) X is true for Bob but not true  
for Rich" or maybe something like "(5) Bob is justified in believing  
X while Rich is justified in believing Y and X and Y are both  
statements about slavery and are both true."

But if all this is boring relative to you though it is interesting  
relative to me I will understand.

Best,
Steve
