How do ethical relativism and cultural relativism and divine theory compare?
Ethical Relativism holds that ethics change when the situation changes. (I.e. while it might be wrong for an average person to commit theft, it would be acceptable for a starving person to steal to feed his family.) Cultural Relativism holds that due to culture and history being different in different regions, different truths are acceptable. Cultural Relativism stresses that different cultures have this sort of relationship. (I.e. Aztecs sacrificed humans and it's OK in their culture, but killing people in ours is a crime punishable by death.) Divine Theory is more Universalist in nature. According to Divine Theory, if you reject the Divine Law, you are performing wrong actions regardless of whether or not you concede the validity of the Divine Theory. This means that upbringing and culture are no excuse to avoiding the Universalist Code of Ethics. (The thief in the Ethical Relativism case would still be doing wrong.)

How do The Divine Command Theory and Cultural relativism differ?
Divine Command Theory (DCT) is a theory that stands to say that something is morally acceptable simply "because God says so." (ie: To donate to charity is "good." What makes giving to charity good? "Because God commands it.") Cultural Relativism/Ethnocentrism (CR) is a theory that states that there is no universal code for morality, rather that one's cultural upbringing determines morality. (ie: Just because Americans do not traditionally practice cannibalism, that does not make it morally wrong. Other cultures are raised to think this is a natural and normal practice.)
