At this rate 20 pages will be spent on the -super- deep question of "does truth exist".
1 step at a time, laying out the groundwork atm.
"Something tells me that SDC is not questioned or does not hear that he/she is incorrect to often. We keep getting the "but you don't understand me" or "that's not what I meant" response."
That's called intilectual honesty, lol. Like i said i'm not above correction or education, that's why you whitness me ask for clarification and admit when i'm wrong. I don't see anybody else here admiting there wrong after i point out blatent and self defeating statements. If anything you guys should jump at the chance to prove me wrong because intilectual honesty dosn't come around often.
Also i would like to apologise to @Whateverist for text lauging at you. It's apperant i have been using the wrong word to describe what i've been trying to say.
HOWEVER! It doesn't defeat the point.
"Let's say the principle of non-contradiction is an objective truth"
Are you kidding?
" According to Aristotle, first philosophy, or metaphysics, deals with ontology and first principles, of which the principle (or law) of non-contradiction is the firmest. Aristotle says that without the principle of non-contradiction we could not know anything that we do know."

"So what? What follows from that, because even if those statements are valid, it has no real theological implication. Where is this discussion headed?"
One topic at a time, you can't jump conclutions like that. This thread pertains to the question of "is there objective truth".
