Freebase, do you feel justified in feeling any set of values is better than another, or do you follow relativism?
I'd say that at the heart of matters I adhere to variants of relativism with personal caveats. But for practicality, I'm far more flexible.

Ultimately, I don't think anything is sacred at all, but there are many reasons why one should believe the opposite. Civilization depends on it. But stripping away all the societal obligations, the illusion of unity for anything other than survival, the technology, the politics, the religion, the morality, the ideals and the "intelligence" to understand it all.. we're just animals like the rest of nature's beasts.
But since we are who we are, my accepted man-made morality includes only the simple rule of regarding other human life like you would your own.
If I were an animal out in nature with no better sense, I'd generally be doing the same.
