@greenghost2008 Rorty's take was that Truth, in its strictest philosophical sense, is ultimately unjustifiable because it cannot be quantified without self-referential justifications. From this, he concludes that justification is all that people can talk about meaningfully - "Justification is relative to an audience... Truth isn't relative to anything." He did not take social justification to be the criterion for truth, but social approval to be basis for justification.

@stopEcocidE Sorry, the objectivist is my brother, who was logged in to me. He's Greenghost.

Would you mind elaborating your point? What, says you, characterizes a non-objectivist, and in what sense would Rorty be one?

@greenghost2008
Have you thought about reading him, rather than reading about him, before you call him crazy?
