"There are no absolutes!" said the college professor.
"Hmm," said the student to himself. "That's a pretty strong statement. In fact, that sounds kind of 'absolute.'"
Actually the wave of popular thought is "Anything goes. It all depends on the situation." In a sense the idea is that everything is relative.
Do you notice, however the contradictions in the two statements: "There are no absolutes," and "Everything is relative"? They are both absoute statements. So, the idea is really "Everything is relative (except this statement I just made.)"
The Christian worldview is: Some things are relative, but also some things are absolute.
We have an authoritavie Word from God that expresses many absolutes, and these absolute truths are found in the Bible.
