You can give some example of those differing moralities.
However, if the some religion part of morality if affected by social and cultural codes, that means some people purposely includes few things as morality in interpretation of Religious scripture which is dishonesty itself, philosophically. So that is not morality when you are not accepting your Holy scripture as absolute reference.

Its not about not accepting Holy scripture as an absolute reference. I think majority can’t distinguish between the absolute teaching of religion and those which entered into religion due to interaction with people from other religion and ideologies.

There have been changes in Indian society after the introduction of Islam forming new moral codes which are even followed by non-Muslims and Muslims who lived in India for centuries adapted many things from Indian society which are now followed by sub-continent Muslims (majority of them) without knowing whether those are pure Islamic values or not.

In short, we can agree that religions develop moral framework, but they don’t run in vacuum over the long time, especially when religion spread and come into interaction with other religions / ideologies.
