<<I mean it takes for granted. That there is a universal understanding of Good and Bad.>> Yes, some people call that level of taking things for granted as a reference to common sense. Jefferson liked to call it "self evidence".

<<In college, decades ago, I did a presentation on Good and Bad. It had two overlapping rectangles, one Good, the other Bad.>> You missed something in your research. That is, if you were really seeking anything in the first place.

George, here is an example: You must have seen the often referenced comparison of the "Golden Rule" that spans, in one form or another, most texts of established religion and wisdom. It's generally viewed as good. Of course, I am not ruling out the possibility that you see it both ways.

Lackluster George? Really:) You posted the preceding four posts, and have the nerve to use this word in the same instance. I am impressed.
