It doesn’t tell me anything objective about the act itself, morally or otherwise. Some people have tortured babies because they’re mentally ill, or because it’s a sexual compulsion, or because they lack any kind of emotions at all. By your description above, it would only be bad to torture babies if the person torturing the baby also hated the baby, or did it because of hate.
Do you want to try again? Why is it objectively immoral to torture babies, Acro?
Let's take the statement torturing innocent babies just for fun is wrong, is an objective truth. The sun is shining outside my window is also an objective truth.
Does how I come to recognize any of these objective truths, make them any less of an objective truth?
No. Further, if the method you use to come by that truth doesn’t involve any god, then that renders god unnecessary, and unrelated to any moral truths. I’ll ask you a third time, because you seem to want to evade the question: Why is it objectively wrong to torture babies?
