My question is how much can People tolerate “truths” of different cultures when every culture has their own truths?

This is a different question altogether. Those truths may or may not be true and that is what I am interested in primarily.

Truth is based on reality.Reality is a construction of the http://mind.So if one foundation of a cultural construction is solid whereas other cultures are more open to different realities wouldn’t that mean that the solid construction would take over the more open minded

Well, reality simply isn't a construction of the mind. Reality existed long before minds did. I don't know what the rest of it means but you'll be better off talking to feminists, theologians or metaphysicians about it than me.

Does reality exist without a mind trying to make sense of it and if reality exist outside of our own perceptions what is truth?

Yes. There is much evidence of reality existing before minds which could make sense of it. Dinosaur fossils for example. We are such arrogant apes to think we can make reality bend to our minds. Truth is what is. The existence of dinosaurs is a truth.

We all pick and choose our evidence to make sense of our reality.

I really don't want to mute you. Please stop teaching me the elements of cultural constructivism and asserting them as tho they are true and I have not addressed them 100 times.

I feel fairly sure you have followed me for a while. If so, you should know that I understand cultural constructivist arguments, have written several essays about them & have just accepted a deal for a book. I don't need a very naive simplistic introduction to the basic concepts.

I told you politely that I really don't want to have this very basic conversation about what CC is and why it doesn't work yet again. I would normally just mute someone ignoring me & having a monologue but you've been supportive, interesting & thoughtful in the past.
