Infinite Multiperspectivism

The view that any phenomenon requires an infinite number of perspectives for complete understanding, and since infinite perspectives are impossible, complete understanding is impossible. But incomplete understanding can still be deep, useful, beautiful. Infinite Multiperspectivism embraces the impossibility of total knowledge as liberation: you'll never get it all, so stop trying. Instead, collect as many perspectives as you can, hold them in tension, move between them, and appreciate that the phenomenon exceeds any finite set of views. Reality is infinite; your grasp is finite. That's not failure—that's the situation.
"You want the full truth about what happened between us? Infinite Multiperspectivism says: there's my truth, your truth, the truth of everyone who saw it, the truth of the security camera, the truth of God if God existed—infinite truths. You'll never have them all. But you can have mine and yours, and that's enough to start."
