Already addressed that in post #957. It was the part you cut out when you quoted it in your post #961.
You mean this?
I don't know how such a view would account for things like a disagreement as to the number of steps up to my apartment.
Putting my Willa thinking cap on, one might say that someone who believes that truth is invariant would of course see a world in which truths were invariant. A person who believes that the truth is relative would experience a world in which truth was relative.
How does that address the fact that truth as relativity is self-defeating?
And what about my questions regarding how belief in a god "creates a godlike entity in their life"?
And not only is such a view self-contradictory (and thus dead on arrival), it is patently false- nobody can hold such a view in their day to day life, because truth and facts
are objective, and we behave as such; if the cat is on the couch for me, it is for you too. Obama is the president of the US for me, for you, and everyone else, whatever you happen to believe. If you believe the coffee shop where we are supposed to meet for lunch is on the corner of 42nd and Grand when in fact its 46th and Grand, it won't be "true for you"- you'll simply be late for lunch.
As I said before, people who argue for such a position put down their pen or step away from their computer, and
disavow relativistic truth. So not only is it
logically untenable, its functionally or practically unworkable as well.
And this whole relative truth business is usually just a misguided attempt to make people feel better about having mistaken beliefs, or for not being willing to critically examine their own views. Its ok if your view is false- it can be "true for you", even though it is not true "for" anyone else. As if we all live in disconnected fairy-tale worlds where we can fashion reality as we wish... if only!
Basically, "relative truth" is a cop out. Objective truth is not all there is- any artist or any lover can tell you that- but it is the only sort of
truth there is.
