Even the statement "every living thing dies" is true only so far as our knowledge of nature extends. We cannot state that absolutely. Absolute truths aren't even necessary.
I disagree. "Absolute Truth" - as stated in my previous post, is not based upon what is in fact known. If my pen is black (although you haven't seen it) you say though that it is white, you do not need to have the physical proof that it is not black but white - you can simply know (if this existed) that there were no white pens that existed in the world at any time, if the time passed, because absolute Truth was a belief.
