If who you are is objective knowledge to goodness, then it's not relative.

I could feel a deep, personal connection to unicorns or Santa, but that doesn't mean those things necessarily exist in reality. It only means that they exist, in concept, in my mind. Just like your god.
What's disputable is your assumption that some intangible value or idea that you've labeled "ultimate goodness" exists in the first place. You have to demonstrate that it's an actual thing before you can draw any truthful conclusions from an argument that uses it in its premises.
What you are using the word "connection" as it is not what I meant. Words have different meanings in different contexts. And that is not my meaning.
Um...care to clarify your intended meaning of the word "connection" then? Since it's part of your argument and all.
