A predisposition to relativism?



I've just been leading a discussion of a group of first-year undergrads. The topic was moral relativism. Unsurprisingly to me, most of the group are staunch relativists. Why do you think this is? Why are our pre-philosophical opinions so disposed to relativism?
 
I have some ideas, but I'd be interested to hear what others think.
