The individual making a claim of truth! Relative truth has NO system of resolution. It is only based on blind belief. Not proven. Who is the ultimate authority of Absolute Truth? The god concept! Who’s god should we base absolute truth on: Allah? Mythical Jesus? Yahweh? Zeus? Buddha? William Lane Craig? Pastor Plantinga? Or should we base it on the 22,000 Protestant sects and their individual relative doctrines on what absolute truth is? Since this concept was invented by man, any claim of absolute truth is indeed a claim of Relative Truth that is disguised by a supposed unquestionable authority. And the important logical fallacy committed here is: Appeal to Authority (argumentum ad verecundiam). Absolute truth has NO system of resolution. It is only based on blind belief. Not proven. Who is the ultimate authority of Truth then? Nobody! There are NO authorities when it comes to truth. There are not even ANY authorities in any discipline. There is only rational and irrational.
