Ewart: Is the Only Absolute, Absolute Power?

“Those in possession of absolute power can not only prophesy and make their prophecies come true, but they can also lie and make their lies come true.” – Eric Hoffer, philosopher

Einstein told us, in great mathematical detail, that in the Universe everything is relative, that is except the speed of light, which is absolute. Even Newton’s law of gravity is only accurate within certain limits, below the speed of light. So if everything in the Universe is relative, except the speed of light, then would not in the case of human behavior, it too is relative? What then of up and down, right and left, hot and cold, right and wrong, good and evil, or conservative and liberal? Aren’t they then relative as well? And who decides which is right and which is wrong? Is the only absolute within the confines of the human condition, absolute power?
