To clarify, people agree that the moral "right" and "wrong" categories contain things that are moral and immoral respectively - but they disagree with each other about which actions are moral and which are immoral.

For example, some people think abortion is immoral. Other people think eating meat is immoral. Other people think homosexual union is immoral - and so on.

These opinions are not widely agreed upon - yet many of those who hold them defend them passionately.
