RE: Why atheism cannot escape absolute truth

A bunch of people have asked different variations of the same question: What is absolute truth?

I take absolute truth to be a synonym for objective truth. That is, truth that is discovered, not created. This is opposed to relativism, which is roughly the view that the truth of a claim is relative, subject to features (usually beliefs, preferences, values, etc) of individuals or groups.
