Intentionally harming others is ubiquitously considered bad by any moral framework worth its salt. So, though there might not be an objective yardstick, we have a certain metaphysical inkling of right and wrong.

And there are groups that intentionally induce extreme pain in young boys as as a rite of passage in to manhood.

That doesn't mean there isn't a biological basis for the near-universal human preference to avoid pain.
