>I’m not at all interested in subjective morality.

I have bad news for you. That's all there is.

Factional conclusion regarding a contentious subject and worded blithely.

There's no universal judge to establish "the rules," the only justification for morality is what justification we can argue.

Objectivity can be found in science because eventually you find the universal, unbreakable rule that determines whatever you're studying. No such thing exists in morality, since it's a subjective human invention.

Not even in science. Any knowledge requires its axioms. That's the bitter lesson.

I think this is premature. I think its more honest to say that it's an open question and that moral relativism is currently in vogue.
