Like I said, if we're going to define it that simply, then yes, there is objective morality, though I'd definitely argue you couldn't think of a long list of things that fit the bill.

Murder, nope. Rape, maybe, but even that's not all bad for everyone involved, as sick as that sounds. That makes it subjective. Hey, maybe tossing out radioactive waste with the bath water? That really can't help anyone or anything.
