Absolutism!

Jarod said:
I think there are universal myths, but due to evolution I do not agree in universal natural law. Everything changes given enough time, even humanity. One day our race will no longer be recognized as "human" but categorized as something new, just like there are no longer Neanderthals... there will no longer be humans. We will be the ancestors of what comes next.

We will, possibly, but survival will still depend on cooperation and evince's kindness. I believe that these are evolutionary traits developed to keep us going.

Great discussion, thanks!

The universal law of gravitation.

Speed of light in a vacuum.

The second law of thermodynamics

The Pythagorean theorem

The law of gravitation is a theory of science, not a rule.
The 2nd law of thermodynamics is a theory of science, not a rule. You discard this theory.
The Pythagorean theorem is not a rule. It's a theorem (and an extension of axioms).
The speed of light in a vacuum is a measurement, not a rule.

So are you saying absolute knowledge in the way that a perfectly all knowing omniscient being would have? Because we are never going to have that kind of knowledge, and that is not even open for debate.

But we absolutely know within the boundaries of reason, cognition, higher mathematics, and scientific experimentation that absolute zero temperature is negative 273 Kelvin, nothing can go faster than the speed of light in a vacuum, and a[SUP]2[/SUP] + b[SUP]2[/SUP] = c[SUP]2[/SUP].

If you are asking if we can ever be perfectly all knowing and all omniscient, the answer is obviously no.

The temperature of absolute zero is not experimentation. Science is not experimentation.

I’m with you


I don’t think this quality can be stripped from man

If it is


We won’t last long
