RussBasically I agree with you that moral relativism is _not_ truly sustainable as an ethical principle - my big problem arise when I have to argue why _my_ ethical principles should be the invariant foundation for a universal set of ethics. Especially as the argument that my morals are best because they are in accordance with my morals sort of doesn't weigh very much with others.

OBL is either right or wrong, he's either good or evil. It doesn't matter what he thinks or what sick demonic rationalizations he, and many Muslims, make for his actions.Methinks Osama would say something like that, too. ;-)
Phhhffffffssssttttttt!
I am sure that we would agree on most of what is right or wrong on an absolute scale - the problem is to convince others...
