As I said to Steven, supposing that values are self-generated rather than discoverable from the nature of things, there is nothing to constrain one against seeking to further one's values. It cannot be wrong to impose one's values, nor can it be wrong to found them on "myth". Since all societies require values, and all core values are equally arbitrary, there can be no harm in it, and even if there were, there is nothing that constrains us to condemn the harm. Thus, since alleging a natural law would be an effective rhetorical device, it is useful to wield. Relativism merely means never having to say you are sorry for your preferences, or for seeking to impose them.......
