"Well, we all experience stimuli essentially the same, and so those tend to inform our morality in a concrete way; we don't enjoy pain, and so causing injury is, within the majority of contexts, considered an immoral act. This is modulated by necessity- self defense and so on- of course, but in the main, hurting people is bad, and that's a stable moral principle. We don't like being dead, or at least we'd prefer to be alive in most cases, and so murder is wrong, and even when it's justifiable it's still not considered one's plan A, so to speak."
This is the weakest part of the argument for me. In that there are some people who enjoy pain (giving and receiving) then its safer to conclude that we don't all experience stimuli in the same way. Therefore "hurting people is bad, and that's a stable moral principle" does not apply in all cases.
There are, of course, also examples of people who would choose to be dead, given the chance - Dignitas for example.
