PostModernism
It's not that postmodernism rejects an absolute Truth. It's that the Truth, if it exists, exists outside the realm that postmodernism describes. I say this is entirely possible.

Skepticism of various sorts, one feature of the "postmodern
sensibility," has appeared regularly in the history of thought,
as has relativism; both positions contain the seeds of their own
refutation (e.g., a typical postmodern sentiment, such as "there
is no such thing as truth," is a self-undermining statement).
[And later...]
Third, such a view gains weight when one contrasts the
postmodern sensibility with the average person's actual
experiences in modern society. As far as one can tell, the
academics who embrace postmodernism drive cars, fly in
transcontinental airplanes, use computers and telephones, bake
in microwave ovens, watch NYPD Blue on television, deposit their
pay-checks, buy stocks or invest in mutual funds, have
mortgages, copulate and sometimes procreate children born in
modern hospitals, and send their off-spring to Ivy League
schools. They flush their toilets and expect the waste to
disappear, perhaps oblivious to the fantastic labyrinths of
sewers beneath their feet. They expect their physicians to
prescribe effective wonder drugs to combat infections. They buy
food from all over the world in well-stocked supermarkets or
delicacy stores. Some even barbecue in the backyards of their
well-built homes, recreating the suburban rituals that framed
their childhoods. They publish articles arguing that language is
everything in journals that, when printed, are miraculously
mailed everywhere. And they crank out reams of publicity
promoting themselves or press the flesh at professional meetings
in sound-proofed, air-conditioned downtown hotels, oiled by the
sweet nectar of the chardonnay grape. In short, like millions of
other middle-class men and women, those who embrace the
postmodern sensibility are wholly dependent on the vast
bureaucratized apparatus of science, technology, production,
administration, distribution, and propaganda that sustains our
entire civilization. One must allow God's fools the bliss of
ignorance.
