Just to try to stir a little more religious debate in...
A common argument used by atheists to "prove" that there is no God is that evil and suffering exist in the universe. If God is all-powerful and all-caring, he wouldn't allow these to exist.
My argument to that has always been that evil is indeed relative. Yes, the Christian God has defined what good and evil are (as vsp pointed out), but he could have made the spectrum itself to be different.
