"Relativism is the philosophical position that all points of view are equally valid and that all truth is relative to the individual." [1] In other words, truth is what you want it to be. "Relative" can essentially mean "wide ranging" or "not absolute". Thus, the relative mindset believes that any idea of absolute truth (something that is true irregardless of if someone thinks it is or not) is impossible. __TOC__

  • According to relativism, Life, the Universe and Everything is relative. Relativism is the exact opposite of objectivism, another theory which says that everything is objective. However, the astute reader might have noticed that both of these theories are based on personal opinions. The only logical conclusion is that relativism is in fact, objectivism, which makes this article useless. Some people believe that relativism has nothing to do with philosophy, and is, in reality an astronomic theory.
