Moral Relativism – Does It Work On A Personal Level?

Valerie Cullers 19 Comments

Moral Relativism holds the view that there are no absolute standards of right and wrong. Moral choices are made at the time dependent on the culture one is in or the situation one is in.

Moral Relativism began to be taught in some of our schools and universities in the 1980’s. Some have come to believe in Moral Relativism and we see that played out in scenarios where people justify and rationalize their actions based on what they want to do at the time. We also see it displayed where people choose to do wrong because they believe that”the ends justify the means.” After all, it’s all relative!

As a belief system Moral Relativism has its flaws. If one follows it on a personal level, it begins to break down rather quickly. A Moral Relativist may believe that it is okay to lie to a teacher about not turning in his homework if it will help him get a better grade. He may steal money from a friend because he believes he needs it more than his friend. He may sleep with a friend’s wife because it feels “right” at the time and he will excuse his actions based on his belief system. 

The Moral Relativist may justify his actions to himself but will react quite differently when these actions are perpetrated against him. Have you ever seen a Moral Relativist react when someone stole his car, slept with his wife, or lied to him about something? He is usually outraged because someone has done him “wrong.” I have not seen one willing to apply his own philosophy to another and accept that the situation is “relative to the other person’s point of view.”

The flaw with Moral Relativism when it is applied on a personal level is that it breaks down when the moral and ethical situations are reversed. No one wants to be lied to, cheated on, or stole from. We all have an innate sense of right and wrong and even if we will go against our own innate beliefs to achieve our ends we will decry another who does us wrong according to our own innate standards.

Whether one wants to believe it or not, we are all born with a conscience. If you watch toddlers, you will see that they know when they have done wrong. There is a look on their face when they lie to you. When they steal a cookie they instinctively hide in order to eat it. They know if they hurt another they have done wrong. Small children feel guilt when they have violated their own conscience.

Whether one wants to believe it or not, there are universal moral laws and they are placed inside of us by our Creator. People of all cultures know that lying, stealing and murder are wrong. No matter what their religious beliefs or ethnicity, there are universal standards of morality written into each human being. Those standards when broken cause us to feel guilt because our conscience tells us we have done wrong.

(for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, are a law to themselves, who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or excusing them) Romans 2: 14-15

      • Hi. Valérie cullers The story of lover and lover Part

        The story of the lover and the lover I know the happy King that he was in the city after the mountains of Asbahan called the Green City and there was a king called King Solomon and was the owner of goodness and charity and justice and safety and gratitude and gratitude went to him Rkban from everywhere and popular in all countries and countries and lived in the Kingdom For a long period of time, he was in a deep and safe place, but he was free of children and wives. He had a minister who approached him in the qualities of good and gifts. He agreed that he was sent to his minister one day and brought him in his hands and said to him, “Minister, it is hard for me. He is not born, and this is the way of kings Rulers on every prince and your grandfather, they rejoice in the children’s success and multiply them with the number and numbers. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: I bless you with the nations on the Day of Resurrection.

        When the minister heard that speech tears ran out of his eyes in harmony and said Hey, King of Time, to speak about the characteristics of the Rahman, you want to enter fire with the wrath of the mighty king? And the king said to him, “Know, minister, that the king, if he buys a maid who does not know its size and does not know its proportions, does not know the originality of its origin, so that he can avoid it. And he does not do what he has commanded him, and he does not avoid what he has to do with it. I do not cause this by buying a slave girl, but rather by asking me to marry a girl of the kings’ daughters, whose ratios are known and her beauty is prescribed. And the religion of the daughters of the kings of Muslims, I make them and Izzo C on the heads of the certificate to get me so satisfaction of the Lord of slaves, the minister said to him: God has spent your need and reached your wish, he said to him: How this? And he said to him, “Know, O King, that I have learned that the king Zahar Shah, the owner of the white land, has an ingenious daughter in the beauty that can not be described as gossip, and there is no resemblance to it at this time because it is very perfect. And if the murderer takes the heart and looks at it as the poet said:

        Haifa is ashamed of the branch of Alban rose did not touch the sun or moon

        As if her body saw and has been mixed by the mole, but its gap is drier

        The cod from Hor al-Jinan has a beautiful face and in its mouth is a flower

        And how many of her dead Matt Kid of CMD and in the way of her fear and danger

        If you live, it is what you will remember or die without

        When the minister finished describing that procession, he said to King Sulaiman Shah: “I have the opinion, O king, that you should send to her father a competent messenger who is expert in matters, trying to keep up with the events of the ages, so that she may be courteous in her sermon to you from her father. It was narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “There is no monasticism in Islam. Then he went to the king as he did to the joy and extended his chest and explained it. Go to your home and cancel your work and prepare tomorrow and address me this girl The minister went to his house and called with gifts that are good for the kings of the precious jewels and the ammunition and ammunition, etc., which is light in pregnancy and heavy in the price of Arab horses and the armor of the david and money funds that can not Described the article, and then carried on the mules and beauty and the minister went with him hundred hundred and one hundred ongoing and spread flags and flags on his head and the king recommended to come to him in a few days.

        After he went, King Sulaiman Shah became aware of the fire. He was busy at night and day, and the minister walked by night and day to cover the city and the city he was heading to. And then he went quickly to that city and when he presented it, he agreed that the king Zahir Shah was sitting in some parks in front of the door of the city and he saw it inside and knew it was strange and ordered to bring it in his hands. When the messenger came and told him to come, The green land and the mountains of Isfahan and Farah The king of Zahar Shah welcomed the Prophet and took him and went to his palace and said: Where did the minister leave? He ordered his brother to take most of his qualities, his hijab, his deputies, and his countrymen, and to bring them out to meet him in honor of King Sulaiman Shah because his rule is valid in the land. This was not the order of King Zahir Shah, but what was the matter of the minister, he settled in place to half the night and then left to go to the city when the morning came and the sun shone on the rug and the butcher did not feel but the Minister of the King Zahir Shah and his heads and his state and the characteristics of his kingdom came upon him and met And he entered the palace of the king and entered his hands in the door of the palace to the seventh vestibule. This is the place where the passenger does not enter because he is close to the king, and the minister sails and tries on his feet until he reaches Iwan. High and in the chest is the bed of the marble He was born with four rolls of elephant’s tails. On that bed was arranged from the green atlas, embroidered with gold for red, and above it was a marquee of blood and substance.

        When King Zahir Shah heard that speech, he stood up on foot and then the earth with modesty, and the audience was amazed by the king’s submission to the messenger, and the minds were astonished. Then the king praised the majesty and honor. He said: Among his subjects and we honor his proportion and compete with him and my daughter running out of the joys and this is my destiny to be my offspring and dependability. Then he brought the judges and witnesses who testified that King Solomon Shah and all his ministers in marriage and King Zahar Shah held his daughter gladly, and that the judges have made the marriage contract and called them to win and success, then the minister and brought the gifts and gifts of antiques and gifts and presented to all King Zahr Shah, and then the king took in the processing of his daughter and dignified the minister and his great and poor feasts and continued to establish joy for two months did not leave anything which pleased the heart and eye, and what was needed by the bride ordered to take out the tents and beat the city and wore cloth in the boxes, Turks.

Then he made a red gold handkerchief studded with blood and substance and gave her ten bags for the journey. And then he gave up his daughter and left the minister and with him and returned to the homelands in a joy and safety and the minister went to the daughter of the king and walked and was still winding the stages and the desolation.

        When the army surrounded it with the right and the north, and the calf was still surrounded by it until it came near the palace, and no one remained until it came out to look at it. The drums became a spear and the spear was a toy. The door of the secret and lighted the place with its beauty and brightened its destinations with the jewel of its adornment. When the night came, the servants opened the doors of the pavilion and they stood surrounded by the door. Then the bride came between Juari between the stars or the unique pearl between the pearls. Then she went into the cabin and set up a bed of malmer And the substance sat upon him and the king entered her. And God put her love in his heart, and he removed her virginity, and deviated from what he had of the heart and the guard, and he stayed for about a month, and she arose from him in the first night.

        And to give him up for breast-feeding, he will see the blood of the enemies, the sweetest drinker

        And on the 56th night, she said: I have heard from you, the happy King, that Minister Dandan said to the light of the place: Then the crown of kings said to the young man: “Allah has done you something that happened to one of his ideals. But this is the appreciation of your Lord and my destiny.” ? He said, “Describe to me how I saw those boys who photographed the deer.” He said, “My Moulay, I have reached it with a trick. I did not enter the caravan with her. I went out and ran in the orchards, and there were many trees. And he said to me, “Let the daughter of the king go out into the orchard and smell the flowers.” I said to him, “I have the right to sit in this place until I have to have a look.”
        The Shaykh said: There is nothing wrong with that, and when he said that, I gave him some dirham and said to him: Buy something for us to eat, and he rejoiced when he took the dirham and opened the door. He said to me: “I have disappeared and I have disappeared. If I have black feathers I take my head out of the door and he said: ‘Sheikh, the door of the orchard. When I saw her, I thought that the moon came down into the earth To less thirsty Kachtyak to the water and closed the door after an hour and ago.

        Then I went out of the orchard and went to my house and knew that I did not get out of it and I was one of its men, especially as I became like a woman. I said to myself: This is the daughter of the king and I am a merchant. Where should I come from? When my friends are ready to leave, I prepare and travel with them. , And when we came to this road we met you and this is my story and what happened to me and peace.

        When the crown of kings heard that talk, his heart worked with the love of Donia and then he rode his horse and took Aziz with him and went to his father’s city and gave him a house and set him everything he needed. Then he left him and went and his tears were running on his cheek. On that case, even entered by his father and found a variable color, he knew that he was concerned and mummified, he said to him: Oh and tell me about your situation and what happened to you until you change your color and told him all what happened to him from the story of the minimum from the first to the last, and how love to hear and did not see the eye, He said: O my son, that her father is a king and his country is far from us, and he gave you this and entered your mother’s palace.

        And Shahrazad knew that it was morning so she stop from talking from what she should.

        And on the 577th night she said: I have known to you, the happy king, that the father of the crown of kings said to him, “My son, that her father is a king and his country is far from us, so let you enter this palace and enter your mother’s palace. There are five hundred women running like the moons. The kings will be better than the lady Donya said to him: “My father, I do not want others, which is the picture of the deer that I saw, it is necessary, otherwise I go in the wilderness and kill my soul because of it.” He said to him: “O my son, I have the right to send to her father.” With your mother, and if he is not satisfied, his kingdom shall be shaken upon him, and an army shall be stripped of him, the last of which shall be for him J and ole him, then called the young man, Aziz said: Oh I Do you know the way? He said: Yes. He said to him: I desire you to travel with my minister and said to him: listen and obey. Then Aziz prepared with his minister and gave them gifts and traveled for days and nights until they supervised the islands of the camphor and settled on the shore of the river and the minister sent a messenger from him to the king to tell him to come, and after the departure of the Apostle half day did not feel only the veil of the king and his mother had come to them and to take them from the march of Forskh In the service until they entered the king to give him gifts and stayed with him four days and on the fifth day the minister and entered the king and stood in his hands and talk with him and told him because of his arrival, the king became puzzled in response to the answer because his daughter does not like marriage and knocked his head to the ground an hour and then lifted his head To some etc. He said to him: Go to your master Donya and tell her what you heard and what this minister has said. The servant stood up and missed an hour. Then he went back to the king and said to him, “King of time, when I entered Madonna, I told her what I had heard.” I was furious. And she said to me: If he was angry at marriage, I marry him kill him, said her father to the minister and Aziz peace to the king and told him so and my daughter does not like marriage. And Shahrazad knew that it was morning so she stop from talking from what she should.

        And on the night of the 58th night she said: I have known you, the happy king, when the minister and his companions returned without interest and they are still traveling until they entered the king and told him. Then the captives ordered the soldiers to go out for war and jihad. The king, when he heard the minister’s words, feared for his son the crown of kings. He said: If she fought her father and saved his daughter, she killed herself, and then he died. The king informed his son, the crown of kings, of the truth of the matter My father, I can not bear patience with her, I go to her and cause my contact with her, even if I die, and I do not do anything other than this, and his father said to him: How do you go? And he said: I would like to be in a merchant’s position.

When they entered the merchants, they asked about the shop of the Sheikh of the market. To whom he and his merchants were, and they were magnified, especially the long-term minister, they saw him as a great man, with the crown of kings and Aziz. The merchants said to each other: There is no doubt that this is the sheikh and the father of these two young men.

In the middle of the market and was not bigger than them and do not draw from them because they were large decorated with shelves of ivory and Ebony, and then handed the keys to the minister in the form of a merchant said: God made blessing on you and when the minister took the keys shop went to the boys and put their belongings and ordered their boys to They shall transfer to them all that they have Lost cloth, realized Scheherazade morning Vsktaat talking patency.

        And on the night of the fifty-ninth night, she said: I have known to you, the happy king, that the minister did not tell his men to transport the goods and the cloth. It was worth the money. They transferred all that to the shop and that night when the morning became the minister and the pigeon came in. When they entered the bathroom, And each of the young men with a brilliant beauty and they were in the bathroom to say the poet:

        Bushra met him as he touched his hand

        A body born between water and light

        He still has a taste of his industry

        Until the musk of the statue of camphor

        Then they came out of the bathroom and the market elder was not heard when they entered the bathroom and sat waiting for them, and if they had been accepted, they were like gazelles, and their cheeks were red and their eyes were darkened and their colors were glowing, even as if they were fruitful branches or bright lambs. He said to them, “My children are always with you. , And then the two before his hands and walking before him until they arrived at the shop to maximize him because it is a great market and has been good to them by giving them shop, when he saw their buttocks in concussion increased by the presence of incense and scorn and necks and left Almstabra Vahdq them eyes and sang these two houses:

        <

        The heart sees the door of jurisdiction

        It does not read the subject of the company

        Do not be too dumb in being elated by saying

        So how much rotary astronomy of its movement

        When he heard this hair, he agreed to enter the bathroom two times and they left the minister inside the bathroom. When the market elder entered the bathroom, the second time the minister heard his entry, he went out to him and met him in the middle of the bathroom and he decided to refrain from holding one of his hands with the crown of kings. And he said to him: "They are your children," said the Sheikh of the market, "may Allah keep you." In our city, blessings and blessings have come upon you and your followers will come. Then I will send these two houses:

        I have come and have given us usury

        It has blossomed with flowers for the dead

        And called the earth and above it

        Welcome to the future

        They thanked him for this, and the crown of the kings still protected him and Aziz pours water on him and he thinks his soul in heaven until he finishes his service. He called them and sat next to the minister as he spoke to him, but most of his intention was to look at the crown of kings and Aziz and then the boys came to them with towels. Then he said to him, Sir, that the bathroom is Naim al-Dunya. The Sheikh of the market said: Allaah has made you and your children healthy and God has given them the evil of the eye. Do you keep anything of what Balogha said in the bathroom? The crown of kings said:

        Living a bath is the best way to live

        But the place is small

        A paradise where you hate to live

        Hell calls for entry

        When he finished the crown of the kings of his hair Aziz said, I keep in the bathroom nothing, said Sheikh market I hear him Vnchd these two houses:

        And his house of rock-solid flowers

        Stylish if you set fire to it

        You see him in hell and he is in the right paradise

        And most of them are suns and moons

        When Aziz finished his hair, the Sheikh of the market marveled at their hair and said, "By God, you have made sense of clarity and navigation, so hear from me,

        O good fire and the torment of the torment

        Long live life and life

        I marveled at the house still blissful

        It burns and burns under it

        Live pleasure if it is pain

        His tears shed him

        When they heard this, they marveled at these verses. Then the sheikh of the market decided on them, so they stopped and went to their house to rest from the tiring of the bathroom. Then they ate and drank and they came that night in their house. In what is full of luck and pleasure when the morning became from sleep and wudu and continued to impose them and became, and when the day came and opened shops and markets came out of the house and went to the market and opened the shop and the boys had prepared the best body and brushing the silk carpet and put two ranks each one worth one hundred dinars And they placed on top of each order a molten nugget of gold.

        The throne of kings sat on the throne and sat Aziz on the other and the minister in the middle of the shop and stopped the boys in their hands and listened to people Vazdmoa them and sold some of their clothes and popular mention of the crown of kings in the city and famous news of his good and beauty and then lived on that days and every day people rush to them The crown of kings and recommended him to conceal his command and recommended Aziz and went to the house to run something to benefit them and became the crown of kings and Aziz talking and became the crown of kings say that may come from Ms. Dunya and still the crown of kings on that days and nights when he does not sleep has been able to love and increased by alcohol And even free M Delicious dream and abstained from drink and food was Calder in Tamamh while the crown of the kings sitting and if the old I accepted it. And Shahrazad knew that it was morning so she stop from talking from what she should.

        And on the sixty-first night, she said: I have known you, the happy king, while the crown of the kings is sitting, and if a man came to him, and came forward to him, From the water insulting Hallelujah made you sedition for the world and you still reflect on it and say: What this human that this is only the king of Karim and then mastered him and handed him an individual peace be upon her standing on foot and smiled in the face all this with a signal Aziz then sit next to him and went to her That rest, then the old woman said to the crown of kings: O my son O full descriptions and meanings Are you from these homes? The Crown of the Kings said: "O God, my dear lady, I have not entered these houses except this time, and I did not stay there except in the way of seeing." She said: "You have the honor of the one who is coming on the mercy and the capacity. What I came with you from the cloth shows me something salty. Melih.

        When the crown of kings heard the words of his heart, he did not understand the meaning of her words, Vgmz Aziz Aziz pointed to her Crown Kings: I have everything you desire of the thing that is only suitable for the kings and daughters of kings so you want to turn you what works for his knees and wanted that speech to understand the meaning of her words : I want a cloth suitable for Lady Dunia bint King Shahraman. And when he heard the crown of the kings, his beloved said joy with great joy, and said to Aziz, Bring me with the best of what you have of the merchandise, and Aziz brought him to Baqqah and dissolved it in his hands. Then the crown of kings said to her, "Choose what works for her. This thing is not for anyone else." The old woman chose something worth 1000 dinars. She said to her, "Do you want to be like you in this despicable thing?" Praise be to Allaah who introduced me to you. The old man said to him, "I seek refuge in your face, Her good like you. The Crown of the Kings laughed at him until he lay on his waft and then he said: O judge of the needs at the hands of the old women who are ungodly. He said: My name is the crown of the kings. She said: This is the name of the kings, but you are in the form of merchants. Aziz said to her: From his love to his family and his condolences upon them, His Highness by this name. And the old woman said: God has ratified the evil of evil, even if you have the good people. Then she took the cloth and went on with a dim light of his beauty and beauty and moderation, and she did not walk until she entered Mrs. Dunya and said to her: Madam, I came to you with a cloth and said to her, "Madam, behold, he is his tribe and his eyes. And when Donya saw him, she said to her, "My mother, this is a fine cloth, which I have seen in our city." The old woman said, "My lady, if his salesman is better than him, Radwan opened the gates of the jinn and went out. The merchant who sells this cloth came out of her. Nhudk, it is a fitnah for those who see it has come to our city fabrics for the sake of watching, Ms. Dunya laughed from the words of the old and here realized Shahrazad morning and silent about the permissible words.

        On the 61st night, she said, "I have known to you, the happy King, that Mrs. Donia laughed at the old man's words and said, 'I have betrayed you, old man, you are drowsy, you have lost your mind, and then you said,' Look, look at him, look at him a little, And she was impressed by the good cloth that she saw in her old age. The old woman said to her: "Madam, if you saw his friend, I knew that he was the best on earth," said Mrs. Dunya. "Did you ask him if he had a need to teach us? The old woman said, shaking her head: "God save you, and you have a need, and does anyone have a need?" She said to her: "Go to the crown of kings in time." When he saw her, his heart flew out of joy and rose to her standing on his feet and took her hand and sat down next to him, and when he saw her, When I heard this, he said to Aziz, "Give me a fatwa," and he said to him, "Do you have a book from me and answer me?" And a pen and a pen of brass, and when he came with these tools wrote these verses:

        I wrote to you, my question is a book

        By the pain of separation

        First, the lines of my heart's fire

        The second is Grammy and my thirst

        And the third is Omri and Sabri

        And the fourth is all the rest

        And when the fifth eye accumulated

        And the sixth day of the day of the meeting

        Then he wrote in his commentary: This book is a prisoner of lusts imprisoned in the prison of lusts, which has no launch except by communication even if the imagination because it is suffering the painful punishment of the separation of loved ones, and then spread the tears of the eye and wrote these two houses:

        I wrote unto thee,

        The tear of the eye has no interruption

        I am not ashamed of the glory of my Lord

        May a day be a meeting

        Then he folded the book and sealed it and gave it to the old woman. He said: I send him to Mrs. Dunya. She said, "Listen and obey." Then he gave her a thousand dinars. He said, "Kiss me this gift. I took her and went away calling him, and she did not walk until she entered Mrs. Dunya. The needs until we spend it? She said to her: Madam, he sent a book with me and I do not know what it is, and I read it and understood its meaning. Then she said: "Where do you go from where to this merchant to write me and write me?" Then she smelled her face and said, "If it were not for my fear of Allaah, I would have crucified him on his shop."

        And the old woman said: And anything in this book even bother your heart Is there a dark complaint or the price of cloth? She said to her: Woe you what is in it and only love and love and all this from you, otherwise it is from this devil to reach this talk, the old lady said: Madam, you base in your high palace and up to you one bird bird, your safety of blame and blame and what you From the barking of dogs, do not bother me where I come to this book, but the opinion I have to return to him an answer and threaten him with death and stop this delirium it ends and does not return to do.

        "When I heard the threat and the promise came back from what it was, she said: Ali Badawi and Qartas and a pen of copper, when they brought these tools, wrote these verses:

        O prosecutor of love and Balawi with vigilance

        And the meeting of the found and thought

        I want the connection, you cocky of moon

        Does a man get the moon?

        I advise you what you are asking for

        Then you are short in this danger

        If you return to this talk, it is lost

        Atak me a torment plus damage

  4. As long as we remain fallen creatures, moral relativism is simply subjective excuse making for whatever behavior or speech benefits us. Or we at least believe it benefits us albeit for the shortest of terms. Huge topic. Thanks for taking it on.

  5. The limited extent of my moral relativism is as follows: There are timeless principles and culturally specific examples of them. An action immoral in one time and place may be moral in another, given the variety of settings. How one acts according to a timeless principle depends on who, when, and where one is. Consider the Jewish custom of, so to speak, peaking behind the Law of Moses. Technology and subsistence methods change, rendering parts of the Law of Moses superficially irrelevant. The Jewish custom of asking what the timeless principle is and how to live in one’s context is germane. On the other hand, some actions (such as enslaving people) are always wrong. My guide in these matters comes from St. Paul: love fulfills the Law.

      • Indeed! For example, I lied to my father more than once at the end of his life, when he was suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease. I did so to avoid distressing him in minor matters. Being strictly factual would have created needless, negative situations. On the other hand, if I had lied to evade responsibility and get an innocent person into trouble, that would have been wrong.
