Moral relativism became embraced by the left in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Moral relativism accepts cultural norms as "Moral." Simply declare some antisocial behavior as "Normal," and it also becomes moral under this philosophy.
Now it's celebrated if done in expression of one's "Pride." Moral relativism places the definition of morality in the hands of men, and allows that definition to evolve, as societal expectations evolve.
Moral relativism has rendered us vulnerable to the creeping evil that invades every aspect of our society.
The Palestinian culture accepts their deeds as moral, therefore they must be - right? That is the fruit of moral relativism.
Is God is asking: Do you see it now? Do you see the evil that men will accept when unmoored to inviolable standards?
Do we now understand that there is nothing relative about right and wrong? Or will we choose to stand before the Almighty when our time comes, explaining how moral relativism made sense at the time - even after what we witnessed on October 7?
