Divine Law.

Nay, the Euthryphro answers that. The standard is the effects of acts for beter or worse on humans, other animals and the environment as our evoved moral sense ever refines. This is the humanist standard that even the religious use when they consdier consequences, using reason and facts rather than the tases and whims of the writers who just made up holy books. So the religious when reasoning morally correctly live off ours rather than the opposite as they strenuously so aver.

It is contextual- applies to situations such that we have to consider rules in relation to each. It is provisional - best knowldege applied- and debatable like science. From the consequences [ consequentialism] , we infer moral rules [deontological] and we have the moral virtues also.

I find that subjectivity underpins objective morality as our moral sense notes those consequences using reason. I find that a paradox! skeptique griggsy
