Actually, moral relativism is rejected by pretty much everyone serious about philosophy.

Please tell me you don't really consider Jonathan Dolhenty to be a spokesperson for "pretty much everyone serious about philosophy". He's a reactionary whack-job.

We can disagree on what constitues good and evil, but to claim that there is no distinction is just silly.

Moral relativism doesn't assert that there is no distinction between good and evil; it merely asserts that moral standards are not absolute. See a more sane link that discusses it.

Personally, I don't really think that moral relativism is the way to go when considering questions of ethics, it just annoys me when people misrepresent any argument that discusses value judgments as being a hallmark of some sinister "moral relativism" (usually followed by calling people "Hitler lovers" and the like).
