The Only Truth is that...There is no truth - How contradictory

To say that there is no one truth but many truths regarding the same object or subject is to say that the truth is defined by what the individual believes is the truth. In postmodern logic, "truth" is what one believes. This leads to moral conflicts as to what is right and what is wrong. Many postmodernists believe that absolutists are crazy, extremist and psychotic for believing that truth is absolute. Well, to say that the only truth is no truth is perhaps even crazier and extreme. Above all, it is self-contradictory. And, many people apply postmodernism to their lives.

Since there is no Truth, seeking respect and "justice" is dependent on power.
