Lets imagine a culture that says anyone that has brown eyes is a non-person and can be owned. Once owned that person can be beaten, raped, or killed at the whine of the owner. Further more, any crime comes with a price tag, if you pay the price, you can do whatever you want with no legal repercussions. I think we can rank our current culture as better than that one. If we can rank two culture than it is possible to compare them. That said, we might not be able to conclude if Japanese or German culture today. But we can say that Sudan could be improved by adopting parts of those cultures. I think saying we cannot rank cultures leaves up hobbled when it comes to critically evaluating them.
