Principles of Mental Rebellion

Thoughts from a mind trying to release itself from the ideals of its time.

Commitment

When one says that the truth is relative, he claims to speak the truth. We cannot define things, and certainly not truth itself, without acknowledging that something is true. A completely different question is whether morality is relative. There are persuasive arguments on either side. Most people are committed to one or the other, and it is not easy to change someone’s mind.
