Do I consider it moral? No. Do I expect the society I live in to condone it? No. Can you prove that your morality is right and theirs is wrong? No.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Are you saying that Jesus should not have stopped the stoning of the adulteress?
No, I'm saying that if morality were objective, he could not have stopped the stoning of the adulteress. If the morality you hold near and dear is indeed objective, it is what it is, no matter what and cannot be changed and the morality he lived by called for her to be stoned.
