Absolute Law refers to a set of principles or rules that are considered to be universally true and unchanging, regardless of individual beliefs, cultural differences, or societal norms. It is a concept often associated with moral or ethical principles that are believed to be inherently right or wrong, independent of subjective opinions or personal preferences. Absolute Law is often seen as a guiding framework for human behavior, providing a foundation for justice, fairness, and the preservation of fundamental rights and values. It is often contrasted with relative or situational ethics, which consider moral judgments to be context-dependent and subject to interpretation.
