(Latin: absolutum, entirely free) In philosophy: (1) pure actuality; (2) that which is complete, perfect and unlimited; (3.) that which exists by its own nature and is therefore inde- pendent of everything else; (4) that which is not related to any other being; (5) the sum of all being, actual and potential (Hegel). In the first three meanings it is a name for God which Chrts- tian philosophy may readily accept.
