I remember when I was your age. I thought I knew it all, too. Believe me. Your views will change a dozen times during your lifetime. It's commendable that you are at least thinking things through at such an early age. Just understand that there are other choices available to you than to believe in the traditional biblical god or to be an atheist. Try to think "outside the box". Go get 'em tiger!
Objective morality is easily descriped. Social animals who don't care for eachother do not get the benefits of having a friend to watch your back. Those who do, will. Thus the animal with it's primitive morality is more likely to survive, and evolve an instinctive morality through natural selection.
Thus humans are of course, by nature, to some extent aware of what is right and wrong. Else they would die. That's why a socierty with constant murder can't exist either. They would all die.
Get about 25 to 30 more years under your belt and you'll be singing a different tune. You lack wisdom which comes from experience, sweet child of God.
A very dangerous philosophy indeed! The kind of philosophic types who advance such ideas tend to be quite decent humane people themselves. But if the whole human race adopted such thinking then the result would be hell on earth. And no, I can't PROVE an objective morality but I still believe in it. EXAMPLE: I am CERTAIN that to kill animals for 'sport' is evil. When Sarah Palin killed that bear she made a mockery of her spiritual credentials.
To me it is more important that people have an interest in what is wrong and right than that their conclusions are the same as mine. To me, arguments that brush off morals as a useless subject is the same as them trying to convince people to abandon their human nature, their empathy and caring instincts.

@elnasser40 You should probably learn how to spell "atheist" before you choose to "fight" it.
