The only way there will ever be a universal set of ethics will be if a truly fascist society comes about and takes over the world. Peoples ethics are based upon how they are raised, and what they are taught is right and wrong, if you raise everyone the exact same way, allow no freedom of thought, and punish/kill those that think freely, you will have a society that has a set of universal ethics.
Current society allows too much freedom for there to be a universal set of ethical guidelines that everyone can agree to totally. People are raised to have different moral guidelines. Current ethical standards vary too much for everyone to agree on everything, even within a single county morals can change depending on where your at.
