And how are those groups doing today? Does the morality chosen by a given group allow it to prosper more than others and, thereby indicate the more correct moral code?

Chile, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras and the Dominican Republic are five of only seven countries worldwide to prohibit abortion under any circumstances. This includes victims of rape or women whose lives are at risk.

Yet they are far from prospering. Weird.

Both types of societies have died out. Your mistake is assuming that simply because Spain, England and France still exist that the 16th-19th century societies in question are still thriving.

Besides, the Native Americans' way of life was ended by actions that are almost universally considered immoral in the West today. Your post is a big face-palm all the way around.

The Roman Empire was one of if not the most successful empire in history. At one point in history one-third of the globe's population lived and died under its rule. Their society would be considered incredibly immoral by your modern western standards.

Meanwhile, of the world's ten poorest countries five have banned all forms of abortion and eight are more Christian as a percentage of the population than America.
