perhaps you are not as educated as you think, you are just trained monkeys

It doesn't have to be "relative" to anything, just unbiased.

I generally think of something "objective" as something that can be measured. For example, I can tell how old something is because I can use carbon dating. That is objective and measurable. I'm not sure what you mean by "relative to".

Objective indicates it is measurable and observable and not influenced by the gatherer.
This is what any educated person would define as "objective evidence".

Well, it's a shame you didn't get this in 7th grade, but science, in its broadest form, is intellectual integrity. Objective science is a bit redundant, but is perhaps a term mean to clarify real science from "creation" science.
