Some morals are objective.

For example, the "Golden Rule." Every single culture, philosophy, and religion on earth has a form of it. It arose independently in every single human society on earth. Therefore, that's a pretty "objective" moral, for it doesn't change and it's universally recognized.

"Fairness" is another. In that if one person does something for another and gets a reward... and another person does the same thing for the same person, but gets less of a reward, the second person gets upset. The idea of "fair play" is so objectively universal that it's even observed in the great apes.

But on the other hand, there are a lot of morals out there that are purely subjective. Like not eating shellfish, for one.
