I think I know what you mean here, but I'm inclined to say that I disagree and that morality should be more simple than this. Instead of saying that atrocious, reprehensible crimes are a perversion of morality, I'd say they're simply a result of the exploitation of superstitious beliefs. It's not morality in a different, perverted form; it's amorality. It's no longer moral in any way.
