Theres the rub, like my highschool algebra teacher loved to say "define your variables".
If truth is, as we conceptualize it, the product of sound propositions and valid means of inference it could be nothing other -than- objective...whatever that's worth to someone. That we use the term colloquially to refer to a million private and disparate "truths" is irrelevant....if we're having a -rational- discussion. The rules are what they are, the product is whatever it will be, no matter who or what plays the game.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
