Extract

The two statements are contradictory as they essentially convey opposing theories about truth; relativism - the belief that what is true is what is accepted by one's culture or community - and absolutism - the branch of thought which claims that a statement is either absolutely true or absolutely false and therefore, nothing can be true for a culture or era and yet be false for another. Nevertheless, both absolute and relative "truths" can be obtained from the different areas of knowledge.
Knowledge is generally accepted as a justified true belief, and if relativism and absolutism is in discordance about the truth, its validity can be questioned.
