ERIN: That is NOT what I asserted. What I said--- I admitted that SOME
postmodernists (which I don't agree with) may claim that but postmodernism
shouldn't be reduced to that stance unless you want to overimplify and distort
it. Once again, I am UNCERTAIN about any absolute, I do not DENY or feel
CERTAIN that there are no absolutes. There is a huge difference and I just
don't feel you are seeing that difference in the different types of
postmodernists.
If you could show me the lack of logic in what I actually said I would be
curious. I mean it when I am UNCERTAIN about absolutes, that uncertainty
keeps the possiblity to 50/50 odds and your response has not improved the odds
in my opinion.
