Agreed. An "axiom" means that that statement is a fundamental truth. But
then, if that is "not (your) subjective view", then what is the apparently
*untruthful* view that you do hold? And, how does it govern your actions or
your ideas--which must, inevitably, be wrong?
Do you really think about what you say? Or, do you just "shoot from the hip"?
