That makes sense that 'Absolute' or 'Absolutness' opposes 'representations' - but not 'Absolution' which is an entirely different word:

absolution n
1. the act of absolving or the state of being absolved; release from guilt, obligation, or punishment
2. (Christianity / Roman Catholic Church) Christianity
a. a formal remission of sin pronounced by a priest in the sacrament of penance
b. the prescribed form of words granting such a remission
[from Latin absol;n- acquittal, forgiveness of sins, from absolvere to absolve]
absolutory adj

Thanks for that. I didn't realize that 'absolution' had a different meaning.

Looks like that word was taken over a long time ago. Darn religiness.
