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.

Quote:Support for this claim please.

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.

You'll have to ask that question of someone who's 'morals' allow them to behave that way. There ARE people who actually think eating babies are ok - kinda like the priests who think its 'morally' ok to rape lil boys. YAY!! I can make strawmen too.
