If you asked me that question I would answer that nothing is really "right" or "wrong". For me relativism is starting with the notion (the very relative, internal human notion) that all beliefs are simply that- beliefs I hear that. I am trying to trace the path by which you arrived at that notion (which, incidentally, appears to remain solid and unchanging in your sea of relativity). If you don't have a reason for your notion...then I wonder if you can rely on the constancy of your notion, and I wonder if or why you will. For instance, it is different than the infinite other notions you might have made into the core of your beliefs. In particular, it is different than the notion of absolutism. There must have been a logic path, and that is what I am trying to get at...
