Is truth objective? That is, is truth true for everyone? If it is not – if one thing can be one way for me, and another way for you, without any contradiction – then language is meaningless, because it, too, can mean one thing for me, and another thing for you. This makes the theory of non-objective truth difficult to speak about. But let’s try.
For the sake of argument, suppose you have somehow conveyed to me that you believe there are no absolute truths. How can you expect me to agree with you? Why should you even want me to agree with you? If truth is relative, then very likely the truth about truth being relative is only true for you. For me, truth is absolute. Can you do more than compliment me on my creative approach? After all, my truth is as good as anyone else’s! Certainly, there is no standard to which the relativist can appeal in an attempt to suggest that his truthless truth is truer than mine. In fact, there is no reason why a relativist should bother to try to convince me that his theory is, well, true. Because in fact, it isn’t true. If there is no absolute truth, then it is not true that there is no absolute truth.
On the other hand, saying that relativity in the realm of truth is false is also quite detrimental to the whole system – to put it mildly. In fact, I would find it difficult to state matters any more strongly!
In short, it is simply impossible for there to be no objective truth. Whether or not what I believe to be true is actually true or not, can be questioned; but whether or not truth exists cannot.
