Among the books I am reading (I'll post a list) is "Flannery O'Connor's Sacramental Imagination." The author (Susan Srigley) cites the novel "Wise Blood" where the main character declares, "There's only one truth and that is that there's no truth." And Srigley adds O'Connor's commentary: "Those who have no absolute values cannot let the relative remain merely relative; they are always raising it to the level of the absolute."
I was kind of referring to that idea in my post the other day.

(The link is to the movie of the book, which I suggest you see even if the word isn't there).
