Certainly it does. I don't see any other interpretation of this statement:
We should not expect people in the past to view the world and their place in it the way we do today.
Moral relativism asserts that morality is as good as another. What he said is unremarkable. It is like saying that we should not expect people in the Middle East to view the world as we do. To do is to misunderstand much of what they do. That dos not mean that there are no fixed standards by which to judge their society--or ours, for that matter. By certain principles of jurisprudence, the Inquisition was an improvement, just as the xommon law courts were an improvement over the manorial courts, in large part because there was less injustice. But to assume this is to accept that there is such a thing as justice and even by our imperfect lights, we can see the Inquisition did much injustice.
