understanding leads to good ethics, I would vote ethics.

Ethics, because morality is born out of ethics and right now there is a vast shortage of ethics in this world or ours!! The ethics of our governments and cult religions and social behaviour is so low we can pretty well call it evil.

Neither.We've been ethicized and moralized near to death. What the world needs quite desperately is more population control.

Morality is the distinction of right and wrong, good or bad. Ethics are moral principles. So the answer to your question has to be YES.

both and really it needs more spirituality. People need to know that-
We are not this material body, IE; Race, color, nationality, Religion, mind, intellect, senses, job, etc. We are all eternal spirit souls, part and parcel of the Supreme Soul, also known as Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, etc. We never die, only this mortal body dies. This material world is not our real home, it is called Maya (illusion) and is temporary and full of misery, only one fourth of the souls come here, and the rest are enjoying blissful eternal loving relationships with our Maker named above. We fell here due to envying Gods position. He made the material world for those who want to try to live separately from Him (Which is impossible because He is actually everywhere). After many lifetimes of trying to be happy in this temporary world one becomes frustrated and board and begins to question their existence. We then seek out real happiness, and when one becomes sincere God reveals how to come back Home. Those who are intelligent, take up the process of self realization (Bhakti Yoga) which begins with the chanting of the Maha Mantra (the great mantra for deliverance from all suffering and illusion), which gives one real peace, happiness and reality. Then at the end of life they can give up all material attachments and fully surrender to God and return to the eternal Kingdom, where there is no more birth, death, old age, or disease and be eternally happy. For info go to harekrishnatemple.com Read The Science of Self Realization by Bhaktivedanta Prabhupa- The more people who know this will make the world a better place.

The world doesn't need more of either. There's plenty of it to go around. The world needs more people who are willing to follow through - more people who are willing to care about morality and ethics.

It's just so easy these days to blame someone else. People need to hold themselves accountable. Stop looking for excuses to run amuck.
