In regard to numbers, we were taught that 2 + 2 = 4. Granted, I'm not going to refute that, because I agree with it. Is that to say some tribe in the bumb-fuck Amazon who hold True that 2 + 2 = red are wrong ? Do they not have Truth in that only because we agree they are wrong?
but " 2 + 2 = RED " is no longer reffering to "only number" but to "human perception" (the color red), all of human perception CANNOT be trusted and is therefore question to opinion!

I may be wrong when I say that the only true thing in the world is math (that is, of course, my OPINION and not the truth about the world )


and maybe there IS no absolutely truth in this world? maybe ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING, including numbers, are CONSTANTLY CHANGING, NEVER to be eternal, therefore never question to "ultimate truth"


As a great philosopher once said "The only thing we truly know is that we do not know anything"
