"For postmodernists, it isn't about uncovering the truth. It's about inventing your own 'truth.'"

There is a lot of confusion about what postmodernism means. Maybe this would be a good place for us to start our discussion. I think postmodernism is all about taking our beliefs apart in the discovery of how what we have believed is not based on reliable evidence. It is not about inventing any one's truth; but, more about exposing the erroneous "truths" we have held in the past. It has to do with the democratization of knowledge to the comon people. It does away with such things as eminent domain without reparations. It demands justice where injustice has reigned.
