By this I mean do you believe truths exist that are ALWAYS true regardless of time, location, or circumstance? I don't intend to challenge any belief in this thread... I am simply taking note of them and categorizing them statistically.

So, you mean "absolute moral truths", huh?...

A moral rule that is always heralded by all civilizations as a standard to live by?
And one that would seem to apply to non-human civilizations as well, like bees, lions, wolves...

Can't say there has ever been such a thing.
The closest I can think of is "do not kill members of your own family".
Would you say that's a godly mandate, or a survival strategy?

Would it, now?
Can't you think of some other origin for such group behavior? (hint: I've mentioned one, already!)

Son, I am disapoint!
