Towards a Theory of Relativity of Truth in Morality and Religion

Front Cover
Edwin Mellen Press, 1990 - Philosophy - 150 pages
This study argues for a model in which moral truth is presented as truth in the perspective of certain social commitments, while religious truth is interpreted as truth in the perspective of religious experience. It theorizes that relativity need not conflict with universality. Truth from the perspective of the outsider is, therefore, truth without qualification.
