Q&A 9, Second Answer

My question is: Are there any instances in which morality is subjective or relative?

 Only, I think, in the sense that in some cases there may be more than one moral or immoral option.  If there are multiple options which are equal in terms of morality, then the question of which is 'better' is up to the person making the choice - in other words, subjective.  I do not think that there are any instances in which one option can be genuinely better than another in some cases, but not in others wherein the circumstances are effectively identical.
