I mean in a strict, mathematical way... not for something wich is "almost,approximately true", but something you can rely on.

I believe the Bible--the inspired Word of God--is the absolute truth.

Mathematical way??? I don't know about that. I know only 2 things as absolute. I exist and God exist. That is all. I can not tell you who, what, where, how, or why God is or His/Her/It's essence, only that there is. "I am that I am" for both of us. All the rest is pure speculation. Not what most would like me to say here, but true. And I am a very committed Christian, a member of a Religious order and have a degree in Religious Studies. There is a teaching that as you progress in the spiritual life you must come to this point of letting go of everything that you think you know about God. It is a rather unsettling place to be, but necessary for total union with God.
Peace.

One thing I know to be true is this; My life is not predestined, it is my choice to do, become, say what I will. I will choose to attraction good or bad into to my life. I will choose to be happy or sad. With positive thinking and affirmative thought I can become anything I want. Once I realized what happened in my life was a true consequence of some choice that I made, I really started to live. Before I thought everything was predetermined, so I would blame God or Satan. Now that I take responsibility, I make wiser decisions. My new way of thinking is absolute truth. It will change your life for ever. It has changed my marriage, attitude, friendships, self-esteem, energy, and direction. For say; Law of Attraction. "Whether a man believes he can or can not, either way he is right."

The only truth for sure is that you are reading this sentence. - my copyright, Uncle Wayne "Encyclopedia of Love".
That said, we must find what we can use as a knee jerk reaction to finding the things in life we can trust. Faith is just another word for "trust".
I trust this: Harmony is harmony; disharmony is the only sin against God. (You can define God anyway you want to, but when you create disharmony your universe and your God will find a way of showing you that you are wrong in the long run, even if you gain something or some sweet revenge on a temporary basis.
Karma is not as complicated as most think. It simply means that your decisions and actions today affect your circumstances tomorrow. (Actually Karma means "actions")

All scientists adhere to arithmetic as containing the only absolute truths. no person, no longer even primitives or the low IQ, will deny that a million + a million = 2. Even particular apes will know that a branch with 2 bananas is extra useful than a branch with one. particular, all of us choose to have confidence that what we have confidence is real yet, outdoors of math, just about all of that's opinion. If somebody discovered easily the reality he/she might ought to coach it, little doubt with different, explanatory, absolute truths, etc....

You can't handle the truth, always wanted to say that....well if the truth was meant to be found it would be visible...there for, the truth is a journey to find yourself as an individual and as a human being, your beliefs, your views on life, by the end of this journey of life you will find the truth...but sometimes the truth isn't all thats cracked up to be.

it's part of enlightenment in buddhist philosophy to find the truth to reality as it is. reaching it is a feat that is supposedly accomplished by a very few people as yet.
until then, absolutely anything we perceive as truth is actually just a probability based on assumptions which may or may not be true.
the truth, as they say, is relative until then.

I know that the LDS church has made my family grow closer together. I know that the happiest, nicest, most truthful people(on the whole) I know are Mormons.
No earthly power could ever make me deny the truth of the atonement, and the existance of Heavenly Father.

You might find a mathematical way, I never was looking for that.
What I found out is that God's opinion is the most important one.
