Yet you state no objective morality exists, if God exists, don't you think objective morality would exist?
Doesn't seem you really are all that neutral.
If God existed, morality could be by divine fiat. Then it would still be subjective, a matter of God's whim. For morality to be objective, it must be independent of anyone's will, including God's.
Now, there could be an objective morality in a universe with God where God is still the author of morality, and that is if morality depends on the nature of the universe God created. However in that case, objective morality would be accessible to observation and reason, and would not require divine intervention to discern.
In my opinion, morality is partly subjective (especially sexual mores) and partly objective, but not universal at all. There really are objectively better ways to behave that can be distinguished by results and require only an axiom to which most people would accede: people have value and needless suffering is a bad thing. That will take you a long way.
