No NO a thousand times NO.

If anyone is to change the world they must have an objective firm and true basis of good.

After all, the eye of the coal miners sees mining in Bimblebox as good.
Killing unbelievers, in the eye of the Islamic jihadist is good.

The defendants at Nuremberg argued that it was good in their eyes to obey their superiors' orders, even if the orders were to murder people in the gas chambers.

Without absolute good Matt, all things are permissible. and our protest poetry becomes just as
subjective as any other view about the world. Why should the world change on our say so.

Even finding agreement among ourselves is a bit of a struggle at times.

[Neville Briggs]

At least you won't have to be concerned about bush fires in the rain Matt.
The post-modernists will say " nothing is absolute ", but of course that statement itself is an absolute. Back to the drawing board.

Stephen, it was the artist Georgia O'Keefe who said " Nothing is less real than realism "
