RELATIVISTS OFTEN CONFUSE the changing behavioral situation with the unchanging moral duty…

For example, when discussing a moral topic like premarital sex or cohabitation, you often hear people in support of it say something like, “Get with it, this is the twenty-first century!” as if current behaviors dictate what’s right and wrong.  To illustrate the absurdity of the relativist’s reasoning, you need only to turn the discussion to a more serious moral issue like murder, which also occurs much more frequently in America today that it did fifty years ago.  How many relativists would speak in support of murder by asking us to “Get with it, this is the twenty-first century!”?  That’s where their reasoning takes them when they confuse what people do with what they ought to do.  (Norman L. Geisler, Frank Turek)
