Yes, social mores have evolved over time. And "morality" (how those mores are practiced) has changed with them. For example, women used to be regarded as being whorish women if they didn't wear head coverings. Today, that's not an issue. But the principle of modesty and propriety does remain. We wouldn't let a woman in church topless... unless we were ministering to some native tribe of primitive peoples somewhere.


However, the principle of upholding human dignity, value, and protection from abuse has nearly always been the foundation of all moral teaching in every age.
