I mean in your experience is the world all absolutes?
When your kids fight for example, is one kid evil and one not, in each and every situation?
I mean, the assumption absolute thinkers have is that moral relativists don't have basic standards. Is that true, I don't think so.
Also, absolute relativists often don't admit they have relative morals too. Hey, you ask what about such and such an action by our government then? Oh, blame America first they yell in your face!!! But when you choose to for example prop up an evil dictatoir for our self interest, is that not relative morals too?

I know what you mean, but everyone subdivides their lives into different sections and we all have double standards over certain issues.

Treating morals as relative, harms the soul. For example, many put money over life these days. That creates a ton of things the soul will have to go through to learn the lessons.

Honesty is a good policy.
