The only people that dispute that morality is subjective are idiots that don't know what the fuck subjective/objective means and how to tell the difference.
Objective = things outside the mind; Subjective = things inside the mind. Trees and the sun exist if there is no mind to observe them; how the hell does morality exist if there are no minds to decide/understand what is/isn't moral?
Even if we suppose there's a God, this doesn't stop morality from being subjective on two fronts:
1. Supposedly, God would have something resembling consciousness, so even if God decided what was moral and told us, the source of morality would still be a (or THE) mind: God's.
2. Even if God determines morality, he must relay this morality through other minds (humans) who then understand it. So even then it requires human minds for morality to exist in any meaningful sense.
