Absolute truth is a contradiction and paradox as truths and facts agreed upon.

Facts can be unknown, but not truths.

Facts ARE agreed upon to truth.

Darn typos

Depends on what you mean by "absolute truth". I would argue that 2 + 2 = 4, is an absolute truth, in the sense, as David Hume would characterize in his epistemology, a "necessary truth". Another example being: all triangles have three sides. These things are necessarily true, and thus I would argue, are absolutely true.

But in the moral and empirical landscape, I would agree, that yes, absolute truth becomes a contradiction, as you say.

Donโ€™t know, absolute hangovers are a nightmare. Better with Russian vodka Mike.

Now, doesnโ€™t that sound like a great song title?

I would also suggest there may be brute facts about the universe that would also necessarily be absolutely true, even if the are beyond our capacity to observe or rationally infer. If I had to guess, I'd wager such brute facts exist.
