The logical conclusion to Nick Naylor's reasoning is the breakdown of civilization. Relativism in the extreme is the reason why "intelligent design" is humored as an alternative to evolution. How long until we start "teaching the debate" on whether or not the world is flat? No Mr. Naylor, two plus two equals four no matter clever your arguments are. We can move closer and closer to approximating the truth with the right cognitive tools.
