The Christian answer to Pilate’s cynical question is not a proposition but a person.  I wish more Christians would remember this instead of adopting the Enlightenment belief in objective propositional truth.

    Are there any available examples of statements said by those adhering to them to be objective propositional truth but which the view advanced by this blog post would disclaim objective propositional truth status for?

    Any of them, as language precludes any final and objective formulation of truth. This is not to say that there is no truth, or that it is merely created by human will, but that we need to rethink the epistemological approach that we tend to have toward it.
