This is not correct. There is no such thing as absolute truth. Something can only be true within a set of previously agreed constraints and rules. For example, I can simply imagine a scenario where a=0 implies a=0 is considered to be false, because I define it to be so.

- erichocean 11y agoAlthough I know you meant that jokingly, presumably the op's statement is only true within the parameters of a world where "there is no such thing as absolute truth", therefore, the statement isn't absolutely true, it's just true within the confines of his own (subjective) world view. The actual world, may, in fact, have absolute truth.
