Now I know you still do use those judgments, because deep down you believe in a moral standard of good and evil that you believe everyone should agree on. That there is something "better" we should strive for and that it is not just your opinion. That is why I think you are a flaming hypocrite. Despite all of your protestations to the contrary, you spend most of your time on Tweb trying to "teach" us morality and expecting us to agree that your way is "better"
Technique #1: you left out "objective/absolute" from your statement, but that appears to be what you meant by "actually." There actually IS something immoral/wrong about rape, in my moral framework, as well as the moral frameworks of most humans and most societies. There is nothing "objectively/absolutely" wrong/evil because that concept is meaningless. Just as we cannot say anything about the absolute speed of an object, because the very concept is meaningless; likewise we cannot say anything about the absolute morality of an act because the concept does not exist.
I don't believe you when you say you are a moral relativist.
