The debate on objective vs. subjective morality conflates moral (natural, behavioral) law and moral intuitions. The role of moral intuitions is either to adapt to the moral law or get away with transgressing it. It is those in the latter category that argue for moral relativism in order to deny moral law and justify their transgressions of it. These people will particularly be attracted to forms of abrahamism that promise freedom this law by blaming a particular group for inventing the law and oppressing others with it rather than the law being emergent and the only possible way to maintain stable cooperative relationship between agents.
