If you decided that killing and eating babies was moral would that then be morality equivalent to the current opinion you now have? You can't really claim to be "more moral" if there isn't a Moral Law Giver, there's no real meaning to the word. At most it's just a social fashion and a trend and whatever people decide is moral will be moral.

If you want to say it would be evolutionary disadvantageous how about if you stick to eating handicapped children from birth so maintaining the genetic strength within the overall gene pool? From a purely objective evolutionary stance this would be beneficial. However you still know it's wrong.
