Zeena, is this what you believe?
Relativism is the idea that some elements or aspects of experience or culture are relative to, i.e., dependent on, other elements or aspects.
Common statements that might be considered relativistic include
"That's true for you but not for me" "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" "You can't judge other cultures by the standards of your own"
Some relativists claim that humans can understand and evaluate beliefs and behaviors only in terms of their historical or cultural context. The term often refers to truth relativism, which is the doctrine that there are no absolute truths, i.e., that truth is always relative to some particular frame of reference, such as a language or a culture. Another widespread and contentious form is moral relativism.

I can not, for the life of me - aside from money, imagine why someone on a Christian bbs would want to have anything to do with someone who seems to stand for the cultural norm of social relativism! Is the love of money and noteriety outweighing the principals of God's Word?
