A universal truth is a statement or proposition that is accepted as true by all people, regardless of culture, background, or religion. It is a concept that has been explored and accepted by many great philosophers throughout history, and is considered as axiomatic, or self-evident, in its truths. Universal truths are often held as absolute and unchanging, providing a source of stability and consistency within different societies and cultures. It is important to note that, although popularly accepted as valid, universal truths may not necessarily be true in all contexts.
