What is the standards for morality?

Answer 1

I think we all set our own standards

Answer 2

I think every person has to set their own set of standards for morals. But i think if i were to mention just one, that im sure everybody appreciates or hopes to be, it would be like your avatar name, just honest. Honesty i think is something everybody wants to have in their lives. Its a very popular virtue lol. =)

Hope this helps. =)


Edit: I agree with supahtforyou´s point of view, its true that the media and the majority of society basically decides which standards are "okay" and which arent. So all in all, i do realize that you will always be considered an outsider if you dont go according to society´s norm, however i find that no matter what soceity says, inside yourself, you will always have that sense of right and wrong, so you see in a way, you do set your own personal moral standards. So whether you let your morals be your compass or if you let society guide you, thats up to you.

But this is just my opinion. =D

Answer 3

Well okay, I don't kill people, I don't sleep with other people's mates, I don't steal, I don't lie, I don't intentionally hurt anyone, I don't judge others. The only immoral thing I do is fornicate and pollute my temple with nicotine and alcohol.

Back in WWII We had a term for these kinds of standards, lets light a pipe and we'll talk...

Answer 4

Morality is the means by which the "haves" suppress the "have nots". It's meant to make you feel better about doing nothing constructive in regards to your situation.

Answer 5

Good question. It's different for every person. I may think things are wrong that you believe are moral.

Answer 6

i disagree with what a lot are saying on here, its what society in general feels is right. by what the media says is ok specifically.

Answer 7

Treat people the way you want to be treated .
