    Immutable stuff... even elevated frames of reference generally allow for the law of gravity though, of course, there may be exceptions.

    umm, Is there any chance you could give me another answer?
    I didn't really understand that one.
    If not then maybe you could clarify that one. Please?

    Do you buy either or both of the 'knowable' versus 'unknowable' and/or 'absolute' versus 'relative' constructs?

    what about knowledge or experience, truth or opinion?

    The Merchant Of Venice Act 4, scene 1,
    Could keep up following well somebody else's traces
    For years, but instead I risked to race with the aces;
    I risked to get to know myself
    By means of killing every self
    Of mine like a killer elf;
    Now I feel free enough to pick
    Decisions from an inner peak
    Of mine, thus free afar to see
    I 'm headin' towards the darkest Sea;
    Shakespeare is really too advanced
    for this bug that swirls in trance
    But even shallow, my shallow trace
    is my footprint in my life's race;
    Nothing is happening actually
    We 're only waves eternally
    Your self, my self are passing through
    the Sea remains down there;
    If only we could understand
    that this Sea is our only stand
    the life of our enemies
    with love we would spare;

    Since our Knowledge is finite but not exhausted whilst the pieces of information available to us regarding our kosmos (gravity included) are solely a sum of given elements of reality that they are known to us and they are merely deciphered according to the status of our science and philospophy of nowdays, we are still unable to define a lot of things -and there is still a good deal of things that we ignore.

    Also, since we are aware too of our limited Knowledge regarding the totality of the possible elements of reality of any observer within our universe and regarding the interpretation that we may conduct tomorrow based on new scientific facts and evidence, kindly please explain to this miserable bug which way this status can drive us to affirm that there is such a thing as the so called "absolute truth";

    isn't it possible that both are correct?

    yes my friend, but we are seekers of truth, it is there, but if we not try to grasp it, then what? when i was going for my interview for induction to Glasgow school of art, a lecturer who was interviewing me asserted , there are no correct answers, only correct questions. well if that is the case then why are we searching for solutions?

    Thats a big open-ended question. You answered my question with a question. Unless I am missing something I still do not see what you are getting at.
    I will not answer your question until you give me some more backgound. What 'constructs' are you talking about?

    Respectfully, Karoly, there's a slight deficiency within your frame of reference, which I suspected and which prompted my confirming probe.
