You are really thick. How many times do I have to state the obvious. Complicated does not equal relative.
Relative means that was is right or wrong in one culture may not be rigth in wrong in another culture.
If there is an exception to thou the thou shal not kill rule, that just means the code is complicated not relative.
If the exception is it is OK to kill in self defense, then that rule applies to everyone on the planet. So it is not relative. Of course it is more complicated than that, it is only OK to kill in self defense if killing is the only way to stop harm or serious harm to your person. Does that means it is relative. No that just mean it is complicated.
That rule applies to everyone on the planet.
Now do you get it?
