Some materialists like to assert that all we have is human perception of existence, but when we perceive the ground of our own being it is absolute. The world may not be flat as once was thought common knowledge, but I exist and my knowledge of my existence and participation in existence is absolute and irrefutable. I can pretend otherwise, but it is just a pretense.
The term absolute can have different meanings depending on the context in which it is used. In science, absolute refers to a measurement or value that is independent of external factors and is considered to be true or universal. It is often used as a comparison or standard for other measurements.
Absolute and relative are two different ways of measuring or describing something. Absolute refers to a value that is fixed and unchanging, while relative refers to a value that is compared to something else. For example, absolute temperature is measured in degrees Kelvin, while relative temperature is measured in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Absolute measurements are important in science because they provide a standard or reference point for comparing and evaluating other measurements. This helps to ensure accuracy and reliability in scientific experiments and observations.
In science, absolute values are considered to be constant and unchanging, as they are independent of external factors. However, as our understanding and technology advances, some absolute values may be redefined or adjusted to be more precise. For example, the speed of light was redefined in 1983 to a more precise value based on new measurements.
In different scientific fields, absolute may have slightly different meanings or applications. In physics, absolute is often used to refer to fundamental constants or laws that are universal and unchanging. In chemistry, absolute is used to describe measurements of substances that are pure and not affected by impurities. In biology, absolute may refer to measurements of genetically identical individuals or standardized experiments.
