If subtility is the answer to all (and im not saying it is) then must we all be absolutes? is there any posible way for us to understand the infinitly complex chain of absolutes with any probable cause? or should we just leave what we think is existance in a paramamont state of destruction?

Here's one:
Eternity is forever
Another:
God will never cease to exist
And one more:
The gates of hell will not prevail against God's one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.

I don't know that absolutes are very feasible--who's able to be absolutely...anything? I think the point is to do the best you can, every time, and keep making progress. If you hold yourself to impossible standards, you'll never get anything done and feel like a loser all the time. Nobody's perfect, and I don't see why the idea of a perfect deity makes any sense, if we're in the image of divinity.
As Stuart Smalley says (I think he got it from AA), "Progress, not perfection." Pretty much everybody (except total psychopaths, but they're rare) knows what's right and wrong. Not that they do it...but they know the difference. So do what's right even though it's hard and you'll improve your own life and the lives you touch. It's a start. And really, that's all you can be responsible for.

Absolutes are the only laws/rules we can fall back on to rationalize our moral/ethical code of living. These absolutes can be found only in God's word, the Bible. If you doubt or question God's way of setting up the way we should live, conduct ourselves, raise our kids, etc., then look to Him for your answers, the "world at large" has rejected God, so they will not be able to guide you to truth. God the Father, His Son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit of the triune God are the only God and the bible is a tool for you to use daily in living your life ~ absolutely! :)

of direction the author is suited and regardless of he has created is suited.The universe purposes in an actual order.The advent Adam and his spouse eve is a suited advent.The physique purposes in a suited order.human beings are geared up with potentials and features,on the comparable time,this being is supplied with an mind which makes us distinctive from animals.provided that we use it.As a particular privilege,guy has been given a loose will to choose for the fabulous way or the incorrect way.Our author(God),has arranged for people who choose for to obey him and people who disobey him.that's because of the fact of our mind that god can reward us and punish us.no longer something could properly be fairer than that.to no longer punish the incorrect doers and to no longer reward the righteous could be large injustice so our advent is suited and our judgements are actually not so and that's no longer the fault of the author.God has no longer faults

Absolutes must exist for God cannot lie and therefore if he orders something mightily it shall remain that way.

Discover, learn for yourself, test it, and chose to create.
