Drich,
You have already lost this debate.
God's will changes over time... at least I assume as much. Or is God still cool with owning rape slaves? Does he still require ritualistic animal sacrifice?
No. So how, then, is his morality absolute?

Again Righteousness is not assigned by evaluating action and judging it good or bad. It is following the command of God.

Meaning if you have no absolutes standards in your life (like the bible,) and if you were born into Hitler's Germany, under North Korean rule or maybe under an ISIS state, and just like you do now, you blindly follow and do not challenge pop morality of your culture, how then would you find your way back to what you now consider to be 'moral'?

Jesus is like Pinocchio. He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.
