Like I pointed out earlier, this type of thinking is illogical. The notion that separate, independant "realities" exist for each human is completely nonsensical.
How can you possibly assert that something is a truth for you, but not for someone else?
What if my "truth" is that murder is completely moral? Should we legalize it simply because I think it's okay? I'm sure you can see my point (can't you?).
Let me try again: I don't have any qualms with getting slogged on Jim Beam and driving really fast through a school zone at 8:00 in the morning. Seems perfectly acceptable to me. Therefore, based on your logic, drunken driving should not be outlawed. After all, not everybody believes it's wrong.
Again, my point:
Truth is NOT (can NOT BE) relative! Truth is absolute.
If you disagree with this, please, please, please explain to all of us WHY. There is no logical alternative to exlusive truth.
A person can believe what he believes until he's blue in the face; it doesn't change the truth.
