Reality is not relative? Surely you jest. There is no absolute reality.

What do you think Einsteins relativity was about? Everything is relative to where things are and he proved without a doubt reality is not only relative, but also totally unpredictable in the larger sense. Quantum physics "Heisenerg Uncertainty Principle (HUP) showed we can never be sure of anything, or predict anything with 100% accuracy.

E.g. take motion and position. The more you know about one the less you know about the other. Always.

Proving the above was the largest debate of the last century between Einstein and the quantum physics people. Einstein did not like the idea of everything being a matter of probability, saying god did not play dice with the universe, but he finaly conceded he was wrong.
