Morphing religious social norms

One primary reason why I can't take Christians and related folk seriously when it comes to defining how we're supposed to live and think according to the bible is because their own social norms have changed immensely over time. I remember learning in an American Music class in college that during the early days of US development practically all colonial music was about god and girls and boys were often segregated from one another (way more strict compared to what modern Christians succumb to today). I often think a modern Christian today would be considered a sinner compared to what was acceptable even 100 years ago. So ultimately I don't take them seriously for that reason.
