TGGP, are you familiar with the teachings of Jesus?
Yes, I was raised Christian and I’ve read the Gospels. I don’t think they provide an objective standard of morality, just the jewish Pharisaic tradition filtered through a Hellenistic lens.
Matters of preference are entirely subjective, but for any evolved agent they are far from arbitrary, and subject to increasing agreement to the extent that they reflect increasingly fundamental values in common.
That is relevant to what ethics people may favor, but not to any truth or objective standard. Agreement among people is the result of subjective judgment.
