Absolutism by it's nature condemns "others" not holding the absolute belief to being really really totally wrong. And that gives the person holding the absolute belief a lot of latitude to despise this wrong headed creature that does not believe in the same thing. If you accept relativism it's hard to get worked up enough about anything to do much harm- name me some relativists who started a jihad, or an inquisition. Please. ANY relativists. I can't think of any.
