[MD] What is missed by the conflation of the true with the real

[X Acto]

Mary:

That settles it?

There is an absolute truth out there.  We cannot see it, but we should
ignore that problem and rely solely on our senses.  When my sense experience
disagrees with yours, we should not say that truth is relative - meaning I
guess that we should stick stubbornly to our own version of the truth and
discount everyone else's?

Meaning we should stick to our lie because it's our lie, but we don't have
to grant any accommodation to the next person's.

Pretty messed up dude.  Wonder what he thinks about compliments?

That's my story and I'm gonna stick to it,
Mary


Ron:
I think Marsha would raise issue with it.
