If God tells you that something is good and always has been -- you are obligated to try to believe that.
If God simultaneously turns to the person next to you and says that that same something is bad and always has been -- that person is obligated to try to hold that belief.
We really don't understand this existence. And all our intellectualizing about how we do is just poor judgment. A term like "relativism" used as a metric to judge appropriate conclusions is just foolish.
