I think you need to re-read. Its common fucking sense.

As a theory, rejected? Absurd, utterly fucking absurd.

What the hell possible arguments can you give me to prove the following statement either false and or show how it has been rejected in any way shape or form. Aside from religious kooks who have a tendency to disagree.

"Cultural relativists see morality as a product of culture".

Enlighten me. Please.
