There have to be some moral ground rules which are clear and objective, no? I mean look at the guidelines on this very forum, they seem pretty clear to me. As for the question of who decides which is the correct and most valid interpretation, I like to believe that a great deal of it is innate and hard-wired into us. I've even recently heard of some scientists who believe that morality can be measured and understood using the scientific method. I think the idea is that there are universal behaviours which prove beneficial to all regardless of things such as culture and environment. Interesting stuff.
