Good luck getting that out of him. He's going to launch into some god based relativism or subjectivism and call it "moral objectivity".
In mere reality, moral realism is both secular and the predominant position of moral theorists. You are already, likely, a moral realist. Just about everyone is, in practice even if not in thought. Do you think that there are things about an act that make that act bad, and that those things don;t change even when a persons opinion (or a whole mess of people, like a society or a religion) of that thing does? Hey presto. You're a moral realist.
For some odd reason, these nubbins think it takes a ghost, only god knows why, they sure as hell don't.
