This is a really good article on absolutes vs relativism especially as it relates to the Christian. Consider this article on Barna. Christianity is an absolute religion. There are standards of right and wrong.There are rules. God does not change.
ABSOLUTES VS. RELATIVISM
Each person and culture has developed their own definition of what right or wrong is. This theory is morally unacceptable because it implies an act can be right for someone even
if it is cruel, hateful or harmful. Culture or ones personal preference does not dictate what is right or wrong. Neither can religions, for each area may have its own religion that came down to them from previous
generations. There must be a greater standard, one that is more correct and more sure for us to live by. Otherwise we are left to invent our own opinions that will change in time because of our culture.
The definition of Relative truth- Truth...
