*Coffee conversation:*The very idea of progress among the changing
things of this world logically presupposes a goal that *cannot*
progress; a truth, a good, an end that is eternal, rigid,
unchangeable, and absolute.

For if the finish line “progresses” as the runners do, they cannot
make progress toward it. If the second baseman picks up second base
and runs to third as fast as the runner on first base runs toward the
second, the runner can never progress to second.

That (above) is an argument for “absolute Truth”. What say you?
