It is a moral absolute if you are not a moral relativist. Either it is wrong to commit murder or it is not. Is it wrong?

And by the way, try to respond to the posts in order, it makes for better debate.

This is only if amongst the moral absolutes given down from wherever is a declaration regarding murder. Maybe it seems that I'm arguing semantics, but I think that even if you demonstrate that there exists an absolute system of morals, you need to show that you can derive them without error.

Sorry. I saw a comment in the 'my comments' page and I replied to that first. Your comment wasn't a response to anything that I'd written, so I didn't see it until later.
