Truth ...in terms of "that which comports with reality" (please exclude hard solipsism for the sake of discussion).

Absolute ...in it's modern definition of being complete and undiminished.

Here's an absolute truth:  Water is wet.
[font=Arial][size=medium]The definition of wet is something that is covered in water. If you have an isolated water molecule, the molecule itself it not wet, and, therefore water, as a molecule, is not wet.

Then again it's all semantics
"For the only way to eternal glory is a life lived in service of our Lord, FSM; Verily it is FSM who is the perfect being the name higher than all names, king of all kings and will bestow upon us all, one day, The great reclaiming"  -The Prophet Boiardi-
