Relativism is absolutely right in it's limited definition. Value is a 
personal property, one side of the Quality.

But there are people who claim that they have got "absolute hearing". I 
don't believe in them either.
It wasn't so long ago compared to our DNA's history when normal A= 440, 
444 Hz or even 415 Hz.

There are three sides of the universe, not two.  Energy, pattern and 
dynamic freedom. Relativism is just about one of these.

It is an absolute truth, that cooperating individuals are getting more 
done than those who doesn't cooperate. Therefore we have nations and 
criminal gangs. Therefore nations yield more because they are more 
people with higher education and expertise.

It is an absolute truth that trade laws and rules of the game are more 
exciting than total anarchy. Therefore there are more people watching 
baseball than greenpeace actions. The better rules, the better thrill.

The doctrine that "there are no absolute truths" is just a funny 
self-denying statement.

Play on with the ball.
