if little is absolute, then there goes our whole legal system. what about
laws? true, some do change, but some will never change, and if they do
(murder, child molestation) it will be to the detriment of society.

Perfect example of how laws have changed as regards to murder. At one time, it
was acceptable to offer a duel to a party who insulted you. If one or the other
of you died (was murdered), there was no criminal penalty. Both of you went
into it eyes open as to what the results could be.
I dont think that pistols at dawn would be a currently acceptable solution to
this disagreement, because the winner would then be off to jail.
Another good example is that the bible says thou shall not kill, whereas I
am a (potential) professional killer for my country. So are a bunch of other
LUGNET members, who you dont seem to be going off against. Get off your high
and mighty horse, and realize you are just as stuck in the mud as the rest of
us.
