None... For God created all things that follow in creation. So how can there be anything else?

If you consider the idea of reality by consensus - we have no absolute proof of anything because our perceptions are filtered by our senses and transmitted to our brains to interpret and the end result is our reality. Since everyone filters we agree or come to a consensus as to what is real.

That's the most extreme example. In everyday living, people tend to agree more often than disagree. Even in the face of overwhelming proof many people will stick with the majority or status quo.

Well you know it depends for who...I mean each one of us have different "absolutes". The world absolute is usually defined in oposition to "relative". And all the staff that isn't "the same" for u ...it's kind of absolute. For example: for many people their country is an absolute, and they'll do anything for it, even kill if its "necessary". For others , their job is an absolute....their political ideas...their love for a particular sport team ...And so on...
The problem comes, I believe, when we have too many absolutes...that's when we became BLIND, unwilling to listen others and to broaden our understanding by considering the possibility of ideas and absolutes different to ours!!

Reality is an absolute we can choose to ignore but can never escape. The truth or ignorance of what we choose to believe is ultimately determined by the consequences of our subsequent actions. In response to what we do (or do not do) reality behaves accordingly in the only way it can, through the law of cause and effect.

i'm not sure that a *belief* in god is an absolute. there are atheists, for example. i think what you might mean is what exists whether it's believed in or not. in that case gravity, probably, for one example. or consciousness, some would say. and how about infinity and eternity. :-)

Absolute zero--which is when everything is so cold it stops moving. Whereas, God is a consuming fire. How about that?

i think virtues are absolute - although ppl might be subjective in how to act out those virtues - all have an idea of what they are
