What if you were born and raised in a tribe that considered torturing it's enemy's babies was considered normal behavior? How would you know any different?
The correct response is you wouldn't.
Such tribes generally do such acts based on false justifications, such as the children were curses etc.. To conceal wrongness of the act., and the innocence of the victim. Tribe member who recognize the lie, have recognized that such practices are morally wrong, and have opposed it as a result. Where did they learn that from? If the culture didn’t tell them it was wrong?
