Define objective truth. Please give an example of an objective truth.

This was asked for in page 1 and has been dodged for 9 pages. Don't hold your breath.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

So I looked at the last 9 pages and the only thing I can find is that you admitted that "rule" was a typo for "ratio" that you somehow couldn't correct. Rule and ratio are no where a typo. So much for honesty.

Air is not immaterial, it's invisible.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Soldat du Christ : "...do you not believe that non material things exist? For example gravity? Mathematics? Laws of logic? Truth is fact, by definition. Do you not believe in facts? These are all in fact immaterial."

Logic is immaterial? Logic is a function of the human brain which is material.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!

I said the "laws of logic", for example the law of non contradiction.

The human brain is a function of logic which is immaterial...And saying that is just as meaningless as what you asserted.
