Which was my point. By absolute evidence I mean 'proof'. Which we can get in the field of mathematics, but that's only because mathematics is man-made so - I assume at it's base at least? - it is tautological.
Yes my point is that we can't have absolute evidence because we are subjective observers, or agents, in this reality we experience.
Sorry if I wasn't clear.
@ VOID,
If, indeed, there can be no way we can possibly comprehend how absolute perfection could actually exist in reality (at least in this reality), then that doesn't mean it cannot exist of course. It just means that we have no (rational) reason to believe it does, I would think.
