What you're doing is attempting to use your own morality as a universal standard, and it doesn't work that way.

I can indeed judge you as thinking in an immoral way when saying that a genocidal god worshiping homophobic and misogynous religion is moral.

If your morality does not agree, it is corrupted.

What you’re doing is judging me by your own moral standards (which is fine, as far as it goes), but the clear implication is that you believe your own moral standards are absolutes. That’s a position you can’t possibly justify. 

For what it’s worth, I find homophobia and misogyny abhorrent, but that doesn’t mean that, within the bounds of traditional Christianity, they are immoral. I can disagree with them while recognizing that they are moral claims.
