Moral relativism is the philosophy that moral standards should vary from society to society, and from time to time in history. Under this theory, ethical principles are not universal and are merely social products. This theory teaches that there is no objective moral order or absolute truth. It has been linked to atheism and to Communist and Nazi ideology.
Less often, the term moral relativism can refer to the belief that sexual relationships between relatives are moral. When used in this sense it is closely linked to moral homosexualism.[1]
