We have better stuff, but we are not better people.
You got a mouse in your pocket? What's this "we" shit?
I'm certainly better than Lot, who gave his daughters up for gangrape. I'm certainly better than the slaveholders therein. I'm certainly better than David, who had a man killed because David wanted the wife.
Maybe you're no better, but humanity as a whole has done away with many of the immoral practices condoned by your god. We are better. If you don't include yourself in that we, then perhaps you should shut up about how you can only have morality with faith in your god? It's the intellectually congruent thing to do.
