Abstract
Philosopher Richard Rorty argues that the notion of there being one truth is "...a bad left-over of Greek metaphysics and Christian theology." Professor Rorty says that there are "lots of descriptions of the universe," and states that "..in the physicist's description, the politician's description, the poet's description...they don't all convert to a single truth."
