What does
I cannot agree to disagree either. I think people with two different versions of truth, (or two societies for that matter ) can co-exist peacefully if they were simply to allow that whenever two perceptions of truth exist neither must be right so we must continue in our earnestness and honesty to explore together.
mean?
specifically the words
neither must be right???
A. Neither can be right
B. Neither are right
C. Both parties agree to disagree?
If I perceive my truth to be the truth, and I perceive that your truth contradicts my perception of truth, then I cannot agree that you are right. (not you, but whoever happens to have other truth that is in direct contradiction of my truth).
I think agreeing to disagree allows co-existence. That does not necessarily mean that multiple truths are true just because there are multiple perceptions.
If I perceive that my car is in the driveway full of gas just the way I left it, when in fact someone has stolen either my car or my gas, I then become an involuntary part of their perception. My perception is no longer true no matter how much I want my car to be in the driveway, it will not be there if someone else is driving it.
So I don't sound like a no-it-all, please understand, I am just writing down the way I perceive things to be, and if in your perception you cannot agree-to-disagree, then I guess in my perception I can agree to disagree with you and you can believe there are multiple truths all being true as long as they are within a given perception, even if that perception does not agree.
