Just avoid the stupid posts in future, and nobody will hold it against you (or at least, I hope not). It's only the people who consistently, persistently, and unrepentantly post stupid stuff that piss us off. See names like "The Apologist".

Re: Absolute Truth
Consider this thought experiment (no, I'm not trying to pass it off as truth or anything, just think about it).Sardaukar wrote:Logically there has to be absolute truth eg. "There is no absolute truth" which is a paradox.
1) Its been said that there are exceptions to every rule.
2) The only rule to which there are no exceptions is the rule that there are exceptions to every rule.
3) But then that rule (#2) would be an exception itself.
4) So there are exceptions to every rule
4) Which makes #2 a flase statement.
Argh, my head is spinning.
