The concept of Absolute truth is a theoretical abstraction that comes
from theologians (philosophers) No one else has the time or the interest
to consider it. There is no pragmatic use for it. The rest of us want to
know "what works" and this includes us Christians. Think not? 80% of the
prayers I hear involve trying to cut a special deal with God. (No rain on
