Truth is NOT Relative

Okay this is so simple it's unreal.

First lets take an example of relative and absolute truth. I am the child of my parents, now this is both absolute and relative. For two reasons. It's absolute because they are absolutely, unless my birth certificate is a fraud, my parents, and this is true for everyone in the world. Everyone can say, "Caleb is in fact his parents child." However, I am not the only one who can claim this. This is where the relativity comes in. I am my parents' child, but my brothers are also my parents' children. The relativity being that we all are our parents' children (we share this amongst ourselves and no others can claim this), and the absolute being that anyone can say, "They are their parents' children." Do you see the separation? One is relational and the other is absolute. One can be shared, and the other only stated.

The other day I walked into my bathroom to plug in my laptop so I could listen to music while I took a shower. When I went to plug the cord in a blue sparkle of electricity sparked when it dawned on me, "I don't have a clue how this works...But someone else does." Just because you don't understand the truth behind something, doesn't change that the truth about it still exists. So often people think truth is relative because, "If I don't understand it, or don't think it's true...Then it's not." Unfortunately, that's not the way truth operates. Just because I don't know how electricity works, doesn't change the fact that it does, in fact, function according to absolute laws. It has truths about its function that are absolute, and if one truth exists...It opens the doors for others to exist as well. If electricity has absolute truths to its function, then, in theory, God, morals, life, etc. can have absolute truths. It verifies that the concept is not only probable, but completely plausible. This is a KEY to being a creationist. If you want to show that the absolute truth that God exists, you first have to demonstrate, through hundreds of different ways, that absolute truth exists. And it's as simple as walking into a bathroom, plugging in a laptop which you don't totally comprehend, and realizing, "Just because I don't know how to explain this...Doesn't change the truth behind it."

If one absolute truth exists for ONE OF US...It exists for all of us.
