I don't believe in a inherently moral universe. Isn't it arrogant to think that morality, a concept we invented, has to be applicable universally, across all space and time? Somehow, I doubt so.

It's not just a concept we invented, but also a concept that only apply to us.
So I think the moral universe refers to a morality that would apply to any of us, throughout nations and cultures.
Wich I don't find particularly far fetched since despite our cultures we do find a lot of common ground in our condition. It's the basis for human rights for example.
Although I wouldn't say that cultures shouldn't have an impact to on morality. There's definitely a mixture of both...

Because everyone likes an annoying buzz kill, he was actually quoting a universalist minister from a few decades before.
