Your light analogy, once again, indicates to me that you believe murder is wrong because of the Good. I can't accept that because it implies divine arbitrariness.
No I'm indicating that the reason both of us see wrong, is a result of the light, just as we see the objects in our rooms because of the light. You're making the mistake of conflating the object with the light of Goodness itself.
We both acknowledge that right and wrong/good and bad are objective truths. But you just try and brush the objectiveness of good, in a series of scientific/descriptive facts about x, when x contains no such thing.
As you conceded the good doesn't exist somewhere in the physical descriptions of any actions or things. So if it is an objective truth, it's not a physical one, it's an immaterial or non-physical one, or supernatural one.
I'm not saying something exclusive to my beliefs, but rather both of our perceptions. Your explanation of the nature of objective goodness are false. While this is the right one.
