Since human knowledge is relative, human beings consciously (or often unconsciously) dismiss the relative by creating an absolute. This absolute is created by an absolute which, by virtue of its human origins, is relative. However, it functions in both the practical and theoretical life of human as a genuine absolute. Thus, the absolute is relatively absolutized by the human person. Being simply humans we try to make sense of the inexplicable, but what do we really now and can we possibly know…

In Plato's The Allegory of the Cave, the cave may represent this superficial reality, everything that the prisoners have knowledge of has been conceived from mere illusions created by shadows.
