One of the many problems with that argument is that we are talking about a religion that is currently used as a guide and basis for the morality of billions of people. So when you say “well we cant really judge this guy by today’s moral standards” you’re ignoring the part where those same moral standards could be applied to people today by that religion. It is precisely because people questioned the morality of what older generations did that things could change for the better. So yeah I am going to judge the shit out of people that lived in the past because saying “no that isn’t ok” is the first step to society no longer tolerating the horrors of the past.

they’re already gone, you can’t judge them. There is a difference between “no that isn't ok” and “no, that wasn’t ok”.
First one isn’t judging the past, it’s practically about the present.
Tolerating the horrors of the past also seems absurd. “Intolerance to repeating the horrors of the past” maybe?
are you living your life today according to the customs of 22nd or 31st century?
