What if there is no absolute? How does one actually prove that the absolute exists, to someone that believes differently?

We’ll examine the two possibilities:

1) Absolute truth exists;

2) Absolute truth does not exist, only relative truth exists.

Both statements assert absolute truth—that is, both are stating something absolutely. Therefore, statements of relativism are proof in themselves of the absolute.
