No. It is true that objectively immoral acts are very bad, but what it means specifically is that the act is immoral, period. It is not a matter of opinion. If someone says "oh I think rape is good", that person would be incorrect. It's different from your opinion of what the best tasting food is, for example, where there is no correct or incorrect answer, but is merely just a matter of personal opinion and taste.
The sad fact is that not all people think rape is bad, because there are rapists, and not all of them think what they are doing is bad; they may for example think they are getting revenge against society, or that they are entitled to sex which nobody will give them freely, or that women's feelings about their own bodies don't matter. So it is, in fact, a matter of opinion.
Your view is this: There are people who see that rape is objectively bad, and they are right. There are others, who commit rape, and they are wrong.
Now my turn: There are people who see that the Beatles are objectively good, and they are right. There are others who don't "get" that, and they are wrong.
You are still talking about opinions-- you just happen to be discarding the opinions of people who disagree with you.
