Kinda like saying "Everything is relative, there are no absolutes" which cannot be taken seriously since it is an absolute statement.

If you ever want to have some fun, have a relativist try to defend the "everything is relative" thesis. All of a sudden, a whole series of absolute statements comes spewing forth out of their mouths like Niagra Falls...the thesis is refuted before it's even defended.

Life would be unlivable if there were not at least some absolutes.
