My point is that without religion (or at least a God for deists) moral relativism is the only logical stance. You might be able to develop and build a more complex belief system like you just provided, but I don't see how this means anything if at the bottom of it every good is totally subjective. Even words like "maximize" and "potential" would be subjective outside of a created order. Universal complexity wouldn't have a higher value than that which is simple it's just different. It just is.
Perhaps morality is an abstraction of feeling, telling us how we must or rather did relate to others in the past. Perhaps feelings correlate with physical processes upon which an objective morality can be built.
