OK, I can't resist:

Absolute means nothing of the sort

And is that absolutely true? I guess that would depend upon whose "individual absolute" definition defines the term. Seems that you want absolute to mean this and no other when it suits you, while at the same time you are arguing that "absolute" is an individual, subjective term. I guess you're just going to have to warn us as to which of your two meanings of the term you intend at any particular time: the absolute absolute, where absolute means the pure, ultimate form, or the relative absolute, where absolute can change with every individual, subjective perception.

And that's the absolute truth. Or something.
