The Lies Called "Post-Modernism"/Relativism and Tolerance

Have you ever had someone tell you, "Hey, you have your truth and I have mine. There is no such thing as absolute truth."? At that point you should then ask them, "Is what you've just said, 'there is no absolute truth' absolutely true?" They may say, "Well, I'm just saying that we can't be completely sure about anything." You should then ask, "Are you completely sure that we can't be completely sure about anything?" Then they may say, "Ok, ok... You're not right because we can't know that anything is right or wrong. That's all I'm saying. It's all relative." You should then say, "Is what you're saying, 'You're not right because we can't know if anything is right or wrong' ...right?" Behold, the essence of "post-modernism" or relativism as it's also so called. Here's basically what the philosophy stands for: Self-refutuation. It's a walking contradiction, and it's a lie. When someone says that we can't know if anything is absolutely true, tell them that they are lying and remind them what one is called who tells lies. Of course they will get mad, but anyone who doesn't love truth and says we can't really know what truth is, is opposed to the One who is the Truth, the Way, and the Life and those who believe in Him.

How do they figure that if one church decides to do things a different way, that another church can come in and tell them it's not allowed and they have to change?

Of course, no two churches can agree on what the truth is, so it seems we're back to the beginning.

There is an ultimate truth - the problem is that everyone interprets what they perceive that truth to be, in different ways. And so the solution is to tell all of those who don't abide by your interpretation of the truth, that they are LIARS!? LOL Without relativism, we would have never come to understand that the atrocities committed throughout the ages, in the name of Jesus Christ or Allah, etc, were unholy.

@berivera1964 Is that the correct answer?

[berivera1964]

Relative doesn't mean that anyone has the answer. It means that noone has the answer. Do you believe in a higher power? Higher means superior. It means that wisdom only comes through attempting to understand and not attempting to convince.

. I agree 100% with what is said here. However, I would caution anyone against 100% surety in having the whole truth. Not for sake of peace and unity, but as a guard against hubris. A humble Christian is but a man that should be able to admit that there may be more of himself in his interpretation than of GOD in all but the most basic and obvious passages…
