If you think it's morally wrong, then it really shouldn't be relative. If you think it's right, make damn well sure that you fight for that right.

Negative.
Take the time to understand someone's position before you criticize and slam them.
He is saying that for him, it is morally wrong, but he doesn't believe in forcing that moral opinion on everyone else.
With so many people up in arms about having morality shoved down their collective throats, this is a very admirable position. He has his morals and stands by them, in the meantime he won't criticize you for your morals nor will he try and force his opinions on you.
Judging by the wording and tone of your post, you could learn a lot from him.
