I went to my place of worship last weekend—we talked about how faith gives us absolute truths, like “love your neighbor” being non-negotiable. It feels grounding, you know?
I get why that matters to you! But from a relativist angle, that “absolute truth” is just your religion’s perspective. My “truth” is that kindness matters too, but I don’t need a religious rule to believe it—it’s personal.

But if truth is just personal, what about something like “murder is wrong”? Isn’t that universal? My faith says it’s an absolute, unshakable truth.
Relativism would say that’s a cultural and personal value, not a universal fact. Some societies might have different views, and who are we to say they’re “wrong”? There’s no one-size-fits-all truth.

But my religion teaches that its truth is exclusive—if I accept relativism, I’m doubting that. Traditional institutions like my faith are supposed to be authoritative, but you’re saying that authority is just a made-up structure?
Foucault talked about challenging those power structures! Relativism says religious authority isn’t “absolute”—it’s just one way to view the world. Moral rules aren’t set in stone; we each make our own.
