Nope.  Do you?

By all means, provide a clarification. My mind is not so sharp.

Truth - the quality or state of being true.

I believe truth is the only thing that is absolute. But by "truth" I just mean "whatever corresponds to objective reality". Knowledge isn't absolute because we can never absolutely know what true objective reality is.

You could say that there's no proof that objective reality exists because reality might be subjective, but then subjective reality exists objectively because existence itself must be objective ontologically just not epistemologically.

But I know what you mean and this is just philosophic semantics really. Technically true but still mental wanking.
