Here's another absolute truth: Even though you can walk on the Earth you can't walk on the Sun.
Here's another absolute truth: All animals crap. So if you ever find any space alien crap chances are there's a space alien nearby. So be on guard.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love. 
One man's entertainment is another man's cruel and unusual punishment. Cannot even make such an assessment in a non-axiomatic system.

The closest thing that I can see as being "absolute truth" (undiminished, complete, independent / which also comport with reality) are logical truths. (Wiki) "A logical truth is a statement which is true, and remains true under all reinterpretations of its components other than its logical constants." If I'm wrong, please tear that shit apart, so I can be corrected.  (September 29, 2015 at 6:39 pm)Nay_Sayer Wrote:Then again, a bucket of water isn't wet in itself.
