Hi Kimberly!

I think everything is relative. That there is no such thing as "wrong" or "right", it depends on what the person who is judging believes is wrong or right. But of course I also believe that there is a general moral code like killing other people is definitively wrong. Why? because I don't have the right to take away that person's life, and I wouldn't like others to do it to me.
So my conclusion is that even though it's relative, it depends on points of view, there are codes or laws like the federal law or the ten commandments or moral codes, etc.

Thanks for the question!!
Great question from a great mind!! ; )

There is no right and wrong, but there is a proper and inproper way, one which accords to the general society's views. For example, say you punch someone, you aren't given any more information than that. Who determines who's right and who's wrong is anyone's guess, maybe you punched that person in self defense, or you just felt like venting anger. Either way does not make you right or wrong, it depends on the person's perspective. But there is a proper and improper way, the one who punched the other would technically be improper, as in society, it is considered rude and mean to attack someone. The proper way would have been to went to the police or authorities to resolve any problem that may have arised.

The function of a relationship. You have to look at the information of a system to determine the roles involved. Where there is deviance, attributions of wrong follow. It can be merely stipulated, as in language. But there are still functional relationships that exist outside human construction, as can be found in biological systems.

Well the majority shapes what is acceptable and what is not acceptable, however this majority can be easily lead by leaders, who have their own shady opinions.

In my land of Australia, we had a policy of no anti-imigration of foreginers. The goverment painted a dark view of these people, releasing false pictures of the imigrants throwing their children overboard.

By denigrating these people the goverment could justify placing them into internment camps offshore, to the general conservative public

Our conditioned mind. Our accumulated knowledge about what is right and wrong. That knowledge is always subjective( right for you,wrong for me). This judgment is totally different from what is really true.

If you hurt someone its not right... If it feels wrong it usually is... you know that feeling in the pit of your stomache when you say something without thinking? than you know its wrong... You know the feeling when you smile and brighten someone's day? well.. thats right. When you are comfortable with yourself... Its right..

There is no such thing, it's not a common denominator, one cancels out the other with no positive results, were all win.

to me there is no right or wrong, only a shared majority. most people think it is right to help an elderly woman...so its "right". but if society's attitude shifted it would be "wrong" so i believe there is no such thing as "right or wrong" only "good or bad to you" if it makes you feel good:its right...just keep it a secret if most think its wrong.
