...On Absolutes

Dependency on absolutes is a sign of an intellectual weakness.

Your Sinfulness,
Very clever and daring! But a quick logical analysis of your statement reveals, ---oh my!--that your just declared an absolute! Yes, my friend, that was a universal judgement lurking in your manifesto. Nietzsche's bane has now become your inheritance.
If there are no absolutes, I cannot say there are no absolutes. On what grounds would I make a universal judgement? Are we back to metaphysics?
The loyal opposition,---ni un tonto, ni un alumbrados, pero un gran cortillo contra los herejos!

Your Primacy,
I'm well aware that I used an absolute -- but your prudence in such a manner is always appreciated.
