Basics of Truth

Bringing the Concepts Together

  • It is essential that you understand that EVERY claim has exactly one attribute from EACH of the four categories discussed. For instance, the claim "Milwaukee is in Wisconsin" is DESCRIPTIVE, OBJECTIVE, ABSOLUTE, and TRUE.
  • Helpful tips:
  • If a claim is subjective, then it is automatically relative.
    If a claim is absolute, then it is objective.
    Caution, it does not work the other way around. In other words, one cannot assume that because a claim is relative, that it is subjective or that if a claim is objective, that it is absolute.
    No claims are subjective and absolute.
