Cosmic I think your questions assume things that I wouldn't agree with in the first place so I can't really answer them directly.

how does one actually manage to find (and maintain) this absolute reference point in a dynamic world, without becoming a picture hung by eye?

I didn't claim that I had an absolute reference point, where I can see everything perfectly with no possibility of error.

So, Tim, where is this vantage point from which you perch that allows you to see things in a way that is inconsistent with the physical universe's operation?

I don't see how moral ideas are inconsistent with ideas about the physical operation of the universe. The two are seperate areas of thought that don't easily lend themselves to supporting or disproving each other.
