post-modern world

A postmodern idea is one that recognizes that objectivity is impossible to obtain. It implies the modern era, in which science is the source of truth and reality whereas the pre-modern era was one in which religion was the primary source of truth and reality. However, in the present, the post-modern era, there is no single definitive basis for truth and reality beyond the individual experience. Everything has essentially become subjective.

In post-modern society, truth and reality have been shaped individually. Truth and reality is different for each individual, as they have been developed individually, our personal experiences, history, social class, gender, culture and religion. Ironically, post-modernism's single universal truth is that there is no universal truth. Through the acceptance of this uniform notion it negates uniformity.

We're all just post-modern boys and girls.
