What do you mean with "somehow emergent", do you mean it spontaneously occurs within any human civilization, do you have any proof of this?
In a sense I agree though that it most likely evolves from our sense of what we want and don't want, from that we can consider things and ideas good or bad, morality is the same but systematized, so it can be more universalized, (applied to a group). But that's pretty irrelevant in the context of absolute morality, as this applies to every thing we want/do.
Even if true that doesn't mean it's innately good or bad, so it's not because it exists from human (group) subconsciousness it is good, objective or should be followed.(or I have seen no evidence proving the contrary)
And of course everyone wants other things, so who gets to decide what is good or bad? If you advocate to average the group, why should this be done?
