My Bad...
     I got distracted by the imagination that we were discussing whether 
multiple entities (as part of a larger system) could converge on "Truth" 
and the relationship between their various contingent "working" truths 
and some kind of shared (and therefore useful to the group, not just the 
individual) "truth".

I was lost in the world/anti-world of Fake News and Alt.Facts, and the 
implications of Science V. Fundamentalist Religions.

Not everyone believes that gravity applies to them...
