If you read something on wikipedia that seems like it could be true, and you accept some but not all of it, that doesn't actually mean it is acceptable to hold those views. What is the evidence for believing your belief is one type of moral relativism but not another?
But...we're the same in that respect, right? I mean, some people in other cultures think morals might be different from the ones you have (regardless of who is right), but do not think that this automatically means that no morals can be correct. That is the idea of the first degree of moral relativism (descriptive moral relativism). Would you disagree with the above? And if not, why are you probing me for my justification behind something you yourself believe?
