You are assuming any one religion is valid for all. I don’t believe that.

I don’t believe in an absolute moral truth because one cannot be proven...they are absolute beliefs, not truths

You have stated....”I don’t believe in an absolute moral truth because one cannot be proven...they are absolute beliefs, not truths”......

That very statement is an absolute truth statement, the very thing you are saying cannot be proven by the “reasoning” you are using.

Truth by it's very definition ‘excludes’ it's opposite...it cannot be all-inclusive. When a person denies the exclusive nature of truth they are making a truth claim.

The question will always be whether the truth claim being made is sustained by the tests for truth.
