There exists this popular argument about morality that I just detest. It goes like this: If morality is to exist at all, it must be objective. The reason this is complete junk is that it assumes morality is objective in the first place. In fact, just add “objective” in front of “morality” and absolutely nothing changes about the point – the tautological flaw just becomes more obvious.

For the Sake of Science 
Objective morality should be more aptly named Dogmatic Morality. Dogma as in “thou shalt”.
You are correct, nothing in this universe is absolute…i.e. objective. Our morality comes from our nature as survivalist oraganisms….we got to get along to go along…we adapted.
