There are few absolutes in this world. Do you agree?
I know this is true it is just a difficult consecpt to explain.

There is also a symetric problem.
To say that something is "relative" without making explicit relative to what.
A lot of people use it as an adjective.
A lot of others assume that relative to the observer.
Which in most cases is a gross missunderstanding.
An example of that is Relativity Theory where the wrong folk believe about is that one, relative to the "observer".

There's scientific absolutes but I don't think they exist when it comes to behavior. What I've learned is that when I see words like "every," "all" and "never," they're very, very rarely accurate. Those are great big words that need to be used appropriately. "Every person needs water to live" is different than "Every person is selfish" or whatever.

Really almost nothing is absolute, if anything really is absolute.

Define absolute. That’s okay I can wait.

@sdave455 A view that some actions are intrinsically right or wrong. Invariably conceptual moral dilemmas are posed (which almost no-one will ever face in their lifetime) to which there is no perfect answer and this leads many to conclude that morality is a matter of opinion.
I think that's a particularly shallow understanding of morality, based on a particularly shallow analysis.
People at parties can argue that they don't believe there is any right or wrong, it's a matter of opinion, until the moment you pour your beer over them.
