It was never most societies. It was generally only where resources were short and people were hungry.

If common, many of the societies would have dies out, if it was a common practice.

You are (deliberately, I think) evading the point. You claimed earlier that morality does not change, I have shown that it does. The societies mentioned above practiced infanticide and held it up in the case of deformed, sickly or ‘wrong’ sex newborns as a moral good. Those societies no longer do so. Therefore, this is evidence of moral change.

And it doesn’t matter if it was most societies or only a handful. It doesn’t alter the fact that the morality of killing newborns has changed.

I think you’re wrong when you say it was ‘generally’ done for economic reasons, but let’s say you’re right. It STILL wouldn’t alter the changed morality regarding infanticide, since a parent killing a child today because of scarce resources would be condemned morally as well as legally.
