do you think your answer is the right or the wrong one, or it is relative?

The answer here has been determined.
The question is moot.
There is a right and wrong and it's all relative.
There's so much room or grey area...take a look at the court system.
Sometimes, Always, Usually...
There is no right or wrong answer here, it's all relative.
Did the chicken cross the road or did the road pass under the chicken?
Peace.
~I think that my answer is the right one but it is also relative.
Right, wrong, in between...that's where we are, it's all relative!!
Peace.

Rightness and wrongness imply a standard; how is it to be drawn? Answer: evolution, which applies to societies as well as species: a society that acts according to sound moral principles will survive preferably to one that does not. Hence, the proper measure of a proposed action is: how will it affect society? If a net benefit, moral; if a detriment, immoral; if neither, morally neutral. But these are judgment calls, so calling them relative is not wrong.

Yes there is a right and a wrong and most things are relative.

~~~unknown ,,,,There indeed is "right and wrong" which is as plain as 'black and white'. ,,,But there are also "shades of gray" germaine to the situation. This is why in the American Judicial System there exists Murder in the 1st Degree, or 2nd, or 3rd and a subcategory of Manslaughter by Degrees. Remember though that "ALL things are Relative" and this will aid you in maintaining Perspective.

No Granny thinks most things be relative to what be right and wrong to da person from what they know. Some things always be wrong, like killin and stealin and stuff but some things you got to put your mind on and pray about afore deciding if they right or wrong. Granny

Definitely relative. No matter how right something is in one circumstance you can always imagine a scenario where it is wrong and vice versa.

I would definately say that it is relative. Personally, as long as you arent causing any harm to other people, i dont care what you do. Whats right for me may not be right for you.

Can the results that come from ones actions be good or bad or is the result relative?
If someone goes to jail is that good, bad, or relative?
If someone has sex is that good, bad, or relative?
If someone wins the lottery is that good, bad, or relative?

No, right and wrong implies correctness and while there may be right answers to a problem, actions in this context are neither correct or incorrect. I would say that there are good and bad, with various degrees between. So is it good to kill another human? No, but it's acceptable if you or another's life is in real danger from them.

truth is absolute, if your interested in proof, e-mail me because i've figured it out, and i'm going to be giving a speech on it in two days.
morality, truth, and conscience are one and the same. when you decide to not follow your conscience it is a lack of care for truth. everyone does it, so this is not a personal attack, its just the ones that do it most often look the worst.
