guigus, Absolute truth is based on personal belief; it's not universal.
disagree here
absolute truth is based on a universal things and molecular structures that cannot be otherwise in the enviroment that they are set in
a star ( sun ) energy is essenial to life , molecular structure is what it is , concrete molecular structure cannot produce life
Absolute truth is under your nose every day, you don't need an electronic microscope to find it. The problem is that we try to divorce it from its concrete relativity, so it becomes impossible. Then we blame it for our mistake. Every small truth of our lives is absolute in relation to ourselves: if I am hungry and have no money to buy food, this is an absolute truth to me, and perhaps to someone who chooses to feel my pain (compassion). However, someone else can write a doctoral thesis on my hungry, thus making it relative, full of angles, and even uncertain. This lovely person can turn the truth of my hungry into a purely relative truth, simply because it is relative
to me, and not to him or her. Until you stop looking for an
either absolute
or relative truth, you will only find absolute truth in a transcendental world, just like good Christians are only happy after dying.
