"When it comes to you and your actions there is no standard but yourself, but when it comes to others you judgmentally and narrow-mindfully hold every other human who has ever lived, and even God Himself to a transcendent standard"

Sorry...the standards I value are not transcendent. They are simply my values. It is a simple concept but one you appear to have the utmost difficulty in grasping.

"then why are you continually feigning outrage at what other cultures have done in their own contexts?"

I am not feigning outrage. I FEEL outrage at vicious and cruel acts perpetrated by the superstitious or the psychotic or the irrational. Because in my personal belief system, there are certain actions (pleasant and/or Righteous to others)that are cruel, vicious, and immoral to me.
