A logical framework built on the premise that truth is absolute—the same for everyone, everywhere, always—and that the goal of reasoning is to discover and conform to this absolute truth. In this system, truth is not a matter of perspective, context, or interpretation; it's a matter of correspondence to reality, and reality is one. The logical system of absolute truth is the foundation of classical philosophy, traditional science, and common sense. It's also the source of endless conflict, because when truth is absolute, disagreement means someone is wrong, and wrongness is a moral failing. Absolute truth systems produce certainty, clarity, and intolerance in equal measure.
Example: "He believed in a logical system of absolute truth, which meant that when people disagreed with him, they weren't just different; they were wrong. Wrong in a cosmic sense, wrong absolutely. This made him certain, confident, and impossible to talk to. Absolute truth had given him conviction without humility."

A logical framework built on the premise that truth is relative—to context, perspective, culture, or purpose—and that the goal of reasoning is not to discover universal truths but to navigate a world of multiple, equally valid perspectives. In this system, truth is not one but many; what's true for you may not be true for me, and both can be valid within their frames. The logical system of relative truth is the foundation of postmodern thought, cultural anthropology, and everyday tolerance. It's also the source of endless frustration for those who seek absolute answers. Relative truth systems produce flexibility, humility, and confusion in equal measure.
Example: "She operated within a logical system of relative truth, which meant she could see validity in multiple perspectives, could hold contradictory views without anxiety, could navigate diverse contexts with ease. Some called this wisdom; others called it having no principles. She called it surviving in a complex world."

Spectral Truth Logic System

A logical framework built on the premise that truth exists on a spectrum between absolute and relative, with infinite gradations and multiple dimensions. In a spectral truth system, the question isn't "is it true?" but "where on the spectrum of truth does this claim fall?"—in what dimensions, to what degree, under what conditions, from whose perspective. This system integrates the insights of absolute and relative approaches while transcending their limitations. Spectral truth logic is the logic of wisdom, of nuance, of understanding that most important truths live in the spectral middle—not universal, not merely personal, but true in ways that depend on where you're standing. It's the logic for adults who've given up on simple answers.
Spectral Truth Logic System Example: "She applied spectral truth logic to the debate about her city's new policy, mapping claims across dimensions: economic impact (true for some businesses, false for others), social equity (true in intention, false in execution), environmental effect (true in long term, false in short). The spectral coordinates showed where each side was right and where they were wrong. The debate didn't end, but it got more honest."

A logical framework that posits no limits on truth—truth is infinite, unbounded, encompassing all possibilities, all perspectives, all realities. In an unlimited truth system, every claim is true somewhere, in some dimension, from some perspective; the universe of truth is infinitely large and infinitely various. This system is the logic of the multiverse, of infinite possibility, of the recognition that your truth, however valid, is just one among infinite truths. Unlimited truth systems are exhilarating (anything is true somewhere) and paralyzing (how do you navigate infinite truth?). They're the logic of mystics and quantum physicists, who both know that reality is stranger than we can imagine.
Logical System of Unlimited Truth Example: "He contemplated the logical system of unlimited truth after a psychedelic experience, realizing that his ordinary truth was just one slice of an infinite cake. Every belief he'd ever held was true somewhere, in some dimension, from some perspective. He was simultaneously right and wrong, depending on where you stood. The realization was liberating and disorienting. He returned to ordinary life knowing that his truth was partial, which is the only honest thing to know."

Limited Truth Logic System

A logical framework that acknowledges boundaries on truth—not everything is true, not all perspectives are equally valid, some claims are simply false. In a limited truth system, truth operates within constraints: empirical evidence, logical consistency, practical consequences. This system is the logic of everyday life, of science, of any domain where decisions must be made and actions taken. Limited truth systems provide the boundaries necessary for choice, action, and responsibility. They're less exciting than unlimited systems but more useful—they actually help you navigate the world.
Limited Truth Logic System Example: "He applied a limited truth logic system to his business decisions, acknowledging that not all options were equally viable, not all perspectives equally valid, not all claims equally true. The limits were frustrating—he couldn't do everything, couldn't believe everything—but they made choice possible. Within the limits, he found freedom. Unlimited truth would have paralyzed him."
