I agree with your assessment of the article, I just don't think taking the average of relative moralities makes for an objective morality, at least as the word is used in this context.
Can you be more specific? What is the fallacy?
Sure. It is a fallacy that one can provide me an objective definition of Christianity or any religion in that regard.
Anyway, I think the author of the article linked in the root comment is looking for something more divine for moral values, but as a disappointment, just repeats the same rituals of thousand year old fallacies like as if theist believes have objective basis from which other objective basis can be inferred.
