this conversation has sparked me. very interesting.
please know that i don't mean harm by this...
ok, everyone is going to hate me on this one but for some reason i have to add. plus i'm used to playing devil's advocate, so here goes. re: torturing babies...child abuse...-what constitutes abuse? state federal laws, based on opinions, guidelines created by people...therefore relative. the laws could be considered absolute but the act or receiving of the act(s) could only be relative.
-the feelings could be absolute cuz here we are, -but technically their relative-based on our thresholds right?? or are they?-how bad is bad before it's abuse. laws have only recently considered neglect abuse. relative?
-what constitutes CSA.
if because of a few 'missing words' your 'incident' was not legally described as CSA but you suffer the same affects- is the term/label relative or absolute? are the affects relative or absolute?b2c.
