:That overlooks what the leading British historian Paul Johnson says (he starts his book about the 20th century with a discussion of the theory of relativity, and how it led to increased relativism), that overlooks what the liberal law professor Laurence Tribe says (he wrote a law review article linking the theory of relativity to a call for more [[abortion]] "rights"), that overlooks what now-President [[Barack Obama]] did in allegedly helping with that article, and that downplays the dictionary dates for the terms:
::relativity (1834)
::relativism (1865), but its secondary meaning about moral relativity came later, I think, and its additional meaning is this: "relativity".--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 23:42, 28 November 2009 (EST)
