Aesthetic properties refer to what we see as beautiful or ugly, and this is how you've consistently used the term. Moral properties relate to how we see things as good or bad.
A good thing can be ugly or pretty. A bad thing can be pretty or ugly. Both good and bad things can be neither ugly nor pretty. Aesthetic beauty is not a requirement of moral content or import. Things with moral content or import -may- also possess some aesthetic quality, but it's clearly coincidental and subjectively variable in the event that they do.
-and none of this..has any gods in it....so...?
