[MD] theories of truth

[MarshaV]

If again you are addressing static (relative) truths, than yes indeed, it is better by far.  But personally, I prefer to stick with RMP's terminology "static patterns of value" without the need to assign the term 'truth'.  And I prefer to think of all static patterns of value as hypothetical.

Sounds good, but considering that by consensus (in the noted survey of intellectuals for example) correspondence theories seem to win, who's to make such a 'general' determination?  Obviously, those who answered the survey question thought they were choosing the highest quality theory.   Does that qualify as truth?
