That there are different ways of looking at an elephant, at Mount Everest, or for that matter at a fruit fly, does not mean that there are more than one elephant, Mount Everest, or fruit fly. To the contrary, the very form of the sentence implies that the thing being looked at is the same, only the position of the onlookers (and for that matter their ability to see) being different.

Yes, but morality is somewhat more complex than an elephant, Mount Everest or a fruit fly. What you're looking at isn't always clear. As you said, morality can be hard to establish, which means that is some ares you'll never really know if you're right or not. Some morals are, or should be, true for everyone - such as robbing old ladies. Whichever way you look at it, that's gotta be wrong, right? Other issues, however, aren't quite as clear-cut. (Don't worry, I'm not trying to stir you up - just trying to establish the difference between pluralism and relativism. I've had it explained to me, and I KNOW there's a difference - but I'm having a good deal of truoble expressing myself.)
