Take Derrida at his word

No, it is much better to do Derrida the courtesy of taking him at his word. And then what? For our part, we think that the English philosopher Roger Scruton had it right when he observed that "A writer who says that there are no truths, or that all truth is 'merely relative,' is asking you not to believe him. So don’t."
