This is interesting and reminds me of my engineering. When dealing with electrical signals you don't want much noise. The more noise you get the better chance your system won't work as intended and will have problems. If there is a lot of noise your system just won't work right.<br/><br/>To combat that we need to put in filters to clean up the signal and reduce the noise.<br/><br/>This kind of reminds me of my faith walk and brings in the family askpect. Learning, teaching, and implementing filters on all of the noise out there is almost essential to living as we were intended to.</p> Ya know. This is interesting and reminds me of my engineering.

If you believe in relative truth, you believe that 2 opposite facts can both be true.<br/><br/>2. If you believe opposite facts can both be true, this is the same as not believing in truth at all...you believe in opinion.<br/><br/>3. If you say "I believe in relative truth", you're claiming that this belief, to you, is truth. <br/><br/>4. So far, we can reason, if you say you believe in relative truth, yet two mutually exclusive things cannot be true, your statement cannot be true.<br/><br/>5. Therefore, you're full o' crap. I should not listen to you, because you just discounted your own arguement.<br/><br/>Hence, this proves, either, it's impossible for us to know any fact about anything in existance, or, absolute truth must be true.<br/><br/>------my 2 little cents.....</p> Just a little proof (as in a “math proof”) here about relative truth…CS Lewis style:<br/><br/>1.
