Truth is provisional. The best method that man has developed to study the truth is science.
And for our math major above, 2+2 does equal 4 if we're adding apples, but if we're adding sine waves, 2+2 does not equal 4.

No. Here's a good example:
2+2=4.
If Johnny thinks that 2+2=5, because that makes sense in his mind, does that make it true? NO... because no matter what, 2+2 will always equal 4. It's a fact, that you cannot change.
Same with other issues in life:
Some people may say that abortion is okay, and a freedom that people can have. But just because peopel may think this, doesn't mean its correct.
Abortion is wrong, it's taking away a child's life before it has the opportunity to live. It is just as wrong as killing a new born, an infant, a child, a teenager, an adult, an elderly person, etc.
So 2+2=4... whether you think its 5, or 6, or 27, it will always be 4, no matter what.

It is absolutely true that all objective truth is absolute. It is also absolutely true that objective truth is the only genuine truth. It is also absolutely true that anything relative is subjective opinion, not objective truth.

This sentence is the only absolute truth because all else is relative.

It's absolutely true that that sentence is absolutely nonsense.
