You are confusing taking a class with actually having ethics. No amount of attending a lecture about ethics will convince you if you do not, as a basic premise agree with the ethical principle that loss of life is a bad thing. And to be very clear, ethical principles are subjective. There is no objectively right or wrong thing as far nature is concerned.

Deonotlogists and other Moral Realists and Universalists are shook
But yeah, let's imagine moral ontology was solved, and that moral relativism and nihilism are the only ethical theories around...
That sounds like a fun paradox.
Is "The only objective moral fact is that there is no objective morality" a truthful statement? Is it rational?
