Quantum physics is a very messy department and I think you shouldn't use that area as an example- we don't know enough about it yet.

You are right that we should drop this, but I need to make another comment. I can prove that when my eyes are closed the universe still exists. When my eyes are closed I can still feel it, it is still affecting me, I can smell it, I can taste it, it exsits. Supposing you remove all of my senses, it is still an absolute truth that the universe exists- you are observering it, correct? That means the truth has been identified.

I think that is a very important thing to remember- the absolute truth is always there, but it requires an observer to identify it. That's what happens in quantum physics for the most part- certain things cannot have an identified absolute truth, or when the absolute truth is not identified it is unknown to the particle (so it can be both).
