But that is not what you said about relativists. You said something weird about actions being evil.

I didn't say actions where evil about relativists, or at least not specifically about them. I said some actions are evil. I said the fact that it is evil doesn't depend on my opinion or anyone else's. I recognize that you do not agree with me about this.

The only thing I said about relativists in that post was "If I was really a relativist I would say that the action is evil to me, but may not be to them or something along those lines." I said this because the I agree that the viewpoint of relativists is as you say that "There is NO evil, except what people choose to call evil. And what people choose to call evil depends on their opinions of what is evil. And opinions differ." Since I don't share this point of view I don't call myself a relativist.
