The final word:

Dear E
For your viewing pleasure let me point out that not believing in ABSOLUTES, or liking people who do, does not preclude me (a relativist) from loving my own sense of truth, human values and principles. I believe in truth- although I think you have proved just how RELATIVE and illusive truth can be on the boxing thread. I know what my words say, and yet there are people willing to post for 3 days to argue they mean something OTHER than what I understand them to mean. WOW!!! Could truth be any more relative? I think you come close to understanding what I meant- but not even you understand me perfectly- how could you? How could I understand you perfectly? It should be obvious by now that truth and words are relative, but some people will remain convinced theirs is the only interpretation. FWIW your interpretation of my words is the only one I can understand- since OVER and OVER and OVER again I've mentioned how I detest lying, and hypocrisy, and cruelty - etc. MY human values/principles (which I might add I have great respect for).

How Brees could have arrived where he did is a mystery to me E. But he and his friends are convinced they got there. Let us take that as ample proof of relativism and consider the thing DONE.
