"He also explained how all observations (each persons reality) depended each individual's relative position (their individual perception). "Relativity"

Many wacko religionists think they observe absolute truth and other peoples viewpoints are vilified by their favorite "evil": "relativism""

You don't see the inherently illogical position that you are taking do you? Look in the mirror to see who is continually "vilifying" who.

As to relativism: You seem incapable of distinguishing between the theory of relativity and the philosophical position of moral relativism. You espouse the philosophical position of moral relativism and then complain that you are being unfairly labeled a moral relativist. Are you a moral relativist or not? If so defend it philosophically instead of acting like a two year old. I suspect that you are not because you keep excoriating those with whom you have disagreement in absolute terms as "wackos". Frankly you seem incapable of grappling with the real issues in an honest manner.
