Many more definitions of this word below... by "objective" truth I am referring to something akin to 4-8, truth that is purported to exist out there. Not so much an object of knowledge.

But why? How is that relevant? Should we also attempt to force the use of the word to mean a military target as well? What is the point of all this equivocation, of this definitional shell game?

True enough, thanks for sharing, helps me to relate as I feel the same way about other things like karma & rebirth.

Oh, nevermind, I see now what the point is.
