Yet if I were to state that H2O is comprised of two parts Hydrogen and one part Oxygen i would be stating an Absolute Truth.... a Truth that is uncontested no matter your personal beliefs....

I understand what you are saying and you are right.
But you are only right with the information that you have.
People know about water now, but for how long have they had this info?
I think that elements before were considered earth,wind,fire, and water.That is just an educated guess from videogames.
But what if thoses elements were found to be untrue, meaning there was a way to break them down to another material that we haven't discovered yet. Then H2O wouldn't be the standard anymore.
Same way with God, just because you don't believe he is there, doesn't mean he isn't.
Did Newton discover the law of gravity or was it always there?
Now your own belief of reletive truth is based on your belief that God doesn't exist.
But take another look at the gang example that I wrote.
Would you want this to happen to you?
