Truth is that which is valid apart from our beliefs and perceptions. If truth doesn't exist, then everything is arbitrary. If it does, than some ideas are actually better/more accurate than others. I certainly cannot prove that it is wrong to take a 4 year old girl, rape and torture her in the most hideous manner possible before killing her. However, I believe that it is a true statement that she deserves better than that because of her inherent worth as a human being. Another word you bandies about is fact. Facts are actually a lot more limited than a casual observation might lead one to believe. Dan M. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
