Many people are irrational, unreasonable, and see through the lens of what they desire. IOW, some people want to know what is true - objective reality. Other people want to "know" only that which agrees with what they like or want. Often such people are moral relativists. One problem with moral relativism is that its very foundation is contradictory. Moral relativists, although in theory could accept moral absolutes as part of the spectrum of ideas [and indeed, in order to be internally consistent, would have to], never do. They are right, and those who accept that there are moral absolutes and objective (transcendent) truth are wrong. So they are absolutists after all.
Some people consider the mind of God as absolute, and some people consider the mind of man absolute. Subjectively speaking, of course.
Like those people who think that everyone is God. Only they're more "God" than others.
