According to you, we live in a world full of moral relativity.
Of course we do, and always have.
So far, nobody has been able to show us a non-relative moral.
Will you be the first?
Here, I'll get you started:
It is always/nerver right/wrong to do the following...(insert action, thought, etc., here).

Naturally, when a relativist tells me about this or that is evil, my first reaction is to tell them, "So what? What is your opinion supposed to mean to me?"
Everyone is a relativist, including you.

The US is one of the only nations on planet earth that is concerned with the lives of innocent people.
Not really.
We are the richest country on earth, yet we are not the leader in amount of money given in foreign aid.
We can't even provide healthcare for all of our own children, many thousands of them also go hungry, and we have an appallingly high infant mortality rate and shameful prenatal care policies for the poor here in the country you think is so concerned with "the lives of innocent people".
Stop repeating rah-rah propaganda, juggs, and learn the facts from real information sources.

Everybody knows that marriage should be sacred
I don't know that, and mine isn't sacred.
Marriage, as far as the government is concerned, is a legal contract.
Nothing "sacred" about a license, is there?

Think about it. If laws didn't come from some moral framework, then laws would be completely nonsensical. Obviously it is illegal to molest little children because we find it morally reprehensible.
So why then is it legal for parents to assault their children?
I certainly find it morally reprehensible, but it is perfectly legal.
