If all morals were relative, then moral argument would be a complete waste of time. Therefore, there must be objective elements to morality.
Sex between a brother and a sister seems like one. There is such a strong prevention built into our genes that this doesn't even have to be a law in most societies. And even chimps raised apart can sense relatedness from pheromones and refuse to mate with one another.
perhaps the Objective Moral Truth can be based on , not religion , but on the promotion of our very Humanities survival Health

The problem is twofold: First, not everyone will agree on the factors to be used as a measure.
Second, no one will agree the results of the measurement. Boiling those factors above down to a single set of objective numbers (showing whether a given action promotes or detracts from the factor, and by how much) so that we can objectively determine which acts are "moral" and which are not is too complicated.
no numbers needed
the truth is the truth regardless of the " numbers "

There are societies where this is accepted.
It is really hard to find things which every known society prohibits.
All I can think of off hand is sex with an infant.
