No, they believe in moral relativity. They think that believing in right and wrong is the characteristic of fascist zealots like President Bush. They prefer Monsieur Kerri's nuance. People who believe in right and wrong are "bigots" and "theocrats" and awful nazi goosesteppers.

Not at all. For example: I believe it is wrong to monitor the private sexual activities of consenting adults and throw them in prison if you don't like what they're doing.

The folks who think that this Republic was founded to be a libertinian paradise amaze me. Do they really think that Washington recruited soldiers with promises "Buggery, pornography and prostitution?"

They are not moral relativists, any more than you are. Their definitions of what is right and wrong do not jibe with yours, but that does not mean it is maleable. It is only relative compared with what you deem to be right and wrong.

And, finally, it seems that whereas they might call you "bigot" or "theocrat," you deem them "libertines." Of course, I can't see anyone of your unique intellect actually understanding the aforementioned point.
