Every theist (who believes in this) will tell me what "objective morality" is, and they'll tell me something different. Maybe not totally different, but slightly. So who do I listen to? None of them are making any arguments as to why I should care about what they have to say, except just believing they are right.
It's nothing more than people projecting their own subjective morals and ethics on to an imaginary god in order to make themselves feel superior or for justification.
This is why I kept asking the question "How would you recognize a an objective moral?".
Right. All I get is "people agree murder is wrong, don't they?"
So it amounts to an observation of trends, nothing more. And of course, not everyone agrees anyway. But we exclude people who don't for some reason.
