Does truth in ethics depend on the prospects for resolving deep disagreements about what to do and admire? And how does the realm of ethics fit into our conception of reality?". AMUSEMENT for Theoreticians: Interview article from (now defunct) The Boston Phoenix for 11 09 12 laid in, by Peter Kadzis, "Errol Morris, The truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth" (EXCERPT: Kadzis: "You appear to believe in Absolute Truth." Errol Morris: Yeah, absolutely. (There is the faintest of chuckles.) I do believe in absolute truth, and even in an absolute truth that we can know. You may investigate a crime and fail to come to some absolute, definitive conclusion about what happened, or who's guilty. But you can never know that in advance. You can never know in an investigation if you will be successful or unsuccessful. You have to operate under the premise that you will be successful, that you can come to a conclusion, that you can get definite answers." . . . Kadzis: "In general, why is it so hard to get people to agree on the truth?" Errol Morris: "There are lots of reasons. Part of it is that we're all possessed by narratives. We all like to weave stories for ourselves. Part of why I wrote this book [A Wilderness of Errors: The Trial of Jeffrey MacDonald] is to tell a story about how narratives can actually prevent you from seeing evidence, from seeing the world. One thing to remember about truth is that just because some people believe it doesn't make it true."
