Absolute?
The topic for this discussion came fairly recently when a debate sparked in a history lecture i have recently attended. I was basically the only person that opposed the idea of no absolutes in a verbal manner. The arguement was simple. Were there any absolutes or was everything influenced by mans agenda thus making no absolutes.
Look for me this whole arguement is ludicrus. How can there be no absolutes. The mere fact that one has the oppurtunity to influence something is proof of a central cause or absolute. Let me explain. Someone gets murdered and a certain person is found to be involved. Now that person goes to court and the two arguements arise. One: he is guilty, Two: He is innocent. Now if there was no murder then this whole court case would not of existed and the arguement over innocence would not of occured. The absolute is that someone was murdered.
Another example is in the case of a lighting strike. Now some believe that it was Zeus and others know the science behind it. Now the fact is that lightning exists and thats the absolute!! How can one believe that there is no absolutes. I am not saying that my perception of the lightning bolt is the right one but regardless of my perception, the lightning bolt existed.
Lol and to end this arguement. Someone smart pointed this out to me: “Are there any absolutes? No. Are you absolutely sure?” LOL
Well let me know what you think…
