Like, of course, this can't apply unilaterally to every single thing I think is true - I have to have grace, know I can be wrong, and examine each of my beliefs as dispassionately as possible to keep my biases as contained as possible.
That's not the same as moral relativism.

It's flatly true that one of these "concerns" is based in observable fact, and one is not. I don't think it's part of my (or anyone's) obligation to the social order to grant merit to unreasonable (and frankly harmful) beliefs, no matter how strongly those beliefs are held.
