***For some people and some topics, yes... Right and wrong are things that are defined by individuals and their cultures... Others of us simply know that some things are wrong, and don;t need to be told that if we do wrong... Just that simple."
I must admit I'm not sure of your answer. You seem to be saying that right and wrong are relative, but then it seems you believe right and wrong to be universal but in an undefined way.
To clarify, let me ask you this:
Do you believe that what the Nazi's did to the Jews in the death camps was absolutely and unequivocally wrong and evil, and no matter what culture you are coming from it should be viewed as evil?
And this...
Do you believe that no matter what the culture or situation, it is absolutely wrong for a father to beat, rape and kill his two year old daughter?

to beat, rape and kill his two year old daughter?
Well, duh.
What am I... a Democrat who needs to be shown in a Big Book Of Rules where such things are wrong?
