Purple Rabbit, my dad has replied to you:

'Peace', 'slavery', 'war', 'socialism', 'torture', etc, are abstract concepts, relating specifically to human conditions. (They are in a word, relative.) Mathematical truths are Absolute, and therefore, universal - ie non relative. (Gödel's theorum demonstrates that mathematics cannot be reduced to a positivistic, formal system, because truth is absolute, proof merely relative).
