When someone says or implies, as chaz has done, that the meaning
(singular) of *X* is many meanings (plural), then that IS an oxymoron,
it IS a contradiction. If you dont agree with that, then STOP READING
NOW because the remainder of what I have written is linked directly
with that *non-contradiction* principle.

**********************

Chaz is in reality saying that, each and every meaning, of his claimed
many meanings of truth, must also have many meanings to be regarded as
the truth, because according to him, the truth *means* many meanings,
or as he says, the definition (singular) of truth has many defintions
(plural), now where on earth, other than perhaps in a mental hospital,
could that make any sense?

**********************

So now, you are saying that *truth* can be replaced with the phrase
> satisfies a sense of completion',

So what *standard* are you using to claim something as complete?
