Quote:My point here being that without specific moral standards people tend to fall into a moral relativity which, when tested, actually exposes itself as "whatever is easiest and makes me feel good at that point in time."
When you have a specific set of moral standards that you are expected to uphold, even when it is hard to do so, there is no excuse. And when you fall short of those standards, there is no ignoring it. This is why many people look at Christians and pull the hypocrite card, because there are high standards.
What are these specific moral standards you speak of and how are they known outside of our ability to conceive them?
