You haven't given a significant reason for following "contemporary" or "modern" conceptions of morality other then the argument that "everyone else is doing it," which is hardly a standard of ethics. If everyone thought genocide was acceptable, does that mean it creates moral obligations upon other cultures?

What I got from his post was a statement that just because it happened before doesn't mean it has any bearing on what's happening right now on the ground.

I don't think there was any statement there over the realativity or absolutism in the relationship between morality and modernity.
