On Moral Relativism, Part II

...You apply it to history and the causes we fought just fade away into nothing, and everything is lost. You think that slavery was bad, that’s just your point-of-view, you think that women should have rights, keep that nonsense with you! How can you say Nazis were bad, that Jews shouldn’t be killed, since back then antisemite stuff many German heads filled? How can you say this stuff was wrong, morals are relative, those Germans felt that they were right in not letting them live. The Aztecs believed it holy to pluck our people’s hearts, to judge them wrong by one mind’s thoughts, well, that’s a step to far! The idea that humans can make up morals all their own is a mistake of our hubris, as all of this has shown. Without greater authority, without some turn to God, we only have the law of force, that’s dished out by the rod. So-called ‘relative morals’ bring a quick slide to despair, why fight evil in such a state? Why would you even care? Why risk yourself for something that in a heartbeat will change? And if no one will make such stands, what will hold back the pain? What will defeat all the Stalins, the Hitlers and the like? Men won’t die for a confused mess, they will die for what’s right. Without the moral absolutes that only God can make there is no fight for what matters, since what’s good? Who can say? I even think I’d go so far as putting out the call, without a higher source you can’t claim you're moral at all...
