Why does Truth need the Qualifier: Absolute?
Paul Williams
asks this very question in his latest column: And So it Goes: What is Truth?
This quote:
"I asked why truth needed “absolute” as a qualifier. Did the word itself not carry enough weight? He said he did not know. He was just a musician. Later I had a thought. Could “absolute” be to “truth” what “perfect” is to “harmony”"
Good thoughts. So if all truth is God's Truth; why do we need the qualifier: Absolute Truth?
Since there isn't anything relative about it - only in God's eyes.
