Okay, scorecard so far:
1. Killing is an absolute wrong, but you can't admit it because it creates too much of a cultural dissonance for you. I'm sorry, but I'm afraid that logic dictates in a debate of positivism versus relativism, ties go to relativism.
2. Rape is an absolute wrong.
3. Lying is a relative wrong, unless you take the Lord's name in vain when you do so.
It's been slow, and a bit painful, but I think we're making progress here.

I didn't say lying was a relative wrong. I solely said lying under oath is absolutely wrong.
