14		-Thus, the standard is consistency with the methodological constraints of social inquiry. Impact calculus: a. the standard is not util – it does not say that we only care about the consequences of a certain action, rather it’s a theory of how certain consequences relate to our notion of truth. The rules of scientific inquiry are a constraint on our pursuit of certain consequences, b. non-absolutism is key to finding truth – the pragmatic solution to a given problem varies based on situation.
