Sure, if you way oversimplify it to be this

Quote:Objective morality is the idea that at least some moral judgments are not just true according to a person's subjective opinion, but factually true.

Then, certainly objective morality exists. However, there would be very few things that meet the criteria. They would have to be all good or all bad for everything/one affected.
