when believers want to give their claims more weight, they dress these claims up in scientific terms. When believers want to belittle atheism or secular humanism, they call it a "religion". -Beastie

What should have been a joke exposing absurdity is unappreciated by the resident legalistic black and white thinker.

It is a tiny bikini. It covers nipples and vagina.
Oh, and the woman is exceptionally sexually attractive.

Of course, you think it irrelevent whether this happens in 1000 AD in Jerusalem, in 1400 AD Britain, in 1930s Brigham city or 2011 at Santa Monica beach. B'cause, morality ain't relative man! Riiight?

I am not eager to see your definition of porn.

No, it means you have difficulty with more nuanced and subtle answers than Jersey's "define bikini". I merely implied another level of complexity as in "define strategic area". For example, what strategic area does a one piece suit cover that a bikini does not?

But I undersand that grosser conversation might be more your forté. After all, you post here as an LDS critic......

I did vote in the poll and as you can see, only one option has been selected so far. No, morality isn't relative, but the circumstances are.

Edit: Now two options, but I didn't select the Droppy option.

This is another way of saying, "Morality is relative. Relative to circumstances."
