>>>Show me one place on earth that had current ideas of morality before 1700!<<<

Current ideas are irrelevant. Morality is universal across time and circumstance. Societal ideas about what is good or bad develops as members of society put pressure on one another and on the system to adapt to their desires for change. Sometimes that develops into improvements for segments of the population and sometimes it results in corruptions to society that eventually bring society to collapse.

I realize some believe they have been born into the ultimate and perfect time and place but I suspect that thinking will be proven wrong over time.

Generosity and patience has always and everywhere been a morally good characteristic to hold. Cruelty and harmful behavior has always and everywhere been considered a morally loathsome trait. etc. etc.
