One takes the life of another to defend one's own life or the life of an innocent third party from aggression.

No relativism necessary.

‘Unless you gave yourself life, you are not morally justified in taking it’

So it’s morally justified sometimes to take another’s life, but never justified to take your own?

Justification for taking a human life is dependent on who it is and what the circumstances are...if that isn’t relative, what is it.
