Moral Development Essay
The moral development of a person's character will have a major impact on society as a whole. If we fail to show children moral responsibility they
in turn will lack the moral and ethical sense of values. The critical importance of the early years remains crucial to all later development. With all the
violence and unsuitable language in film, television, and music today's society poses an even larger threat on children. Moral functioning involves
self–esteem, self–control, and altruistic behavior. It seems as if children are developing at a faster rate than previous generations. If we fail to instill
morals than we may fail to produce children that have the conscience to decide what is right from what is wrong. If children grow up lacking...show

I have designed an experiment that will help determine if girls are more moral than boys. Through the local elementary and junior high schools in
Los Angeles, California I have found 25 girls and 25 boys that range from five to twelve years of age. All the students come from affluent
neighborhoods and are from households that have married parents and they are all Caucasians. During this experiment the first thing that will be done
is to divide the children up according to age and sex. The children will then view videotapes, which are the independent variable, of set–up moral
scenarios and write down what they would do in that particular situation that they had viewed. The dependent variable of this experiment is the moral
outcome. All the participants in this experiment are in a controlled environment. A few of the problems with this experiment are that the group of
students comes from the same background, same area, and all from married parents. There is no diversity in ethnicity or culture. This experiment
may not prove my hypothesis to be correct but it may help to validate whether or not this topic is promising enough to continue on with the research.
If the findings are true and girls are more moral than boys we need to find out why that is. What we can do to change it. What is it that is making
girls more moral? Is it society or the way that the child is raised? Many important questions will arise from this

Reflection Paper On Morality
Each day, with the new experiences and challenges a new day brings, we may find ourselves facing the trials of what morality truly means to us. A
few months ago, if you had asked me to tell you what my morals were and how I would interpret the term morality, I would have just told you my
whole life story. I used to think my life and the experiences I have had were the only things that formed my views on moral law and what I believe is
the right way to treat the people around you. Now, since I've participated in this class, my opinions on morality are not only shaped just by my
surroundings and my life experiences, but they are also shaped by the nations and cultures that surround me today and the exposure to diversity that
they have provided me through business and culture. In order to form a developed opinion on the definition of morality, we can look at the word
diversity. This is a word that has means different things to different people. Personally, it is a word that I believe has a large impact on our world.
Diversity is not only a lot of different cultures and backgrounds in one place at the same time, but also how these different cultures and individuals
interact with each other throughout the world. This idea can be compared to a friendship between two people and the support and acceptance they
may have of each other's sociocultural differences.The biggest thing I took away from this class was from one specific discussion we had on whether

Morals, Values, and Ethics Essays
Morals, Values, and Ethics Morals, values and ethics define who we are and what we believe. Culture, religion, and many other things affect our
beliefs. One uses various types off ethics when surrounded by different groups. Knowing between right and wrong is a good foundation to practicing
good ethics and morals. These things make morals, ethics, and values important in society. Many things can contribute to what you think is morally
right or wrong. Religion, for example, may create a barrier on to what extent you do something. Some religions set rules, or guidelines on which they
limit what people do. Cultures, as well, contribute to people's decisions. Many times our values and ethics disagree with different people who hold

This doesn't mean our values or ethics are wrong it just means we think differently than others. When surrounded by different groups, one uses
various types of ethics. For example when one is surrounded by friends and brothers or sisters one forgets what on was taught by our elders about
manners and about being courteous, but when dealing with elders or a superior, certain carefulness is necessary. One cannot just say anything that
pops out into one's head, because one can be judged accordingly and would be thought to be vulgar or disrespectful. We develop many values and
ethics through past experiences whether it is a positive or negative experience. These thoughts and beliefs are what guide us through our life.
Knowing between right and wrong is a good foundation to practicing good ethics and morals. In today's world, individuals can make a single
decision that can have an extreme positive or negative effect on their family, their employer, a nation, and even on the entire world. The life we
lead reflects the strength of our character. For example, if we choose to steal, instead of earning it that makes one of weak character or morals. Like
in The Pardoner's Tale from Chaucer, " greed is the root of all evil." Ethics are different for each person, but for the most part, people want to be
known as a good person. One wants to be known as someone who can be trusted, and one is concerned about his or her relationships

Moral Definition Essay
Moral If asked what the definition of moral most people would give an opaque answer about right and wrong decisions. In reality the word moral is
much more complicated than that. Is moral defined as what a person believes is right or what the society around them believes is right? According to
OxfordDictonary.com moral is a person's standard of behavior or beliefs concerning what is and is not acceptable for them to do. With such a broad
term the word moral is limited to the context the word is placed in. An important topic in the news nowadays is the 2016 election. Many Americans are
concerned with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton's moral. Some people believe that due to Trump's recent sexual comments unearthed in a leaked
tape from 2005 that he is a man of bad moral. In most societies only the most moral and kind people are treated with respect, something that is
incredibly important on the global political stage. Will a president with overall negative moral be able to make trade deals and "Make America
Great Again" if he is not respected by the American people and our allies? This is an example of moral being based on what society believes is right.
Another interpretation of moral is what a certain individual believes to be right. Again the 2016 election can be applied here. Hillary Clinton, a senator

My View Of Human Morality Essay
My view of human morality is that it is influenced by individual culture and experience. Because I believe that as human beings, we all have our
own values, beliefs and attitudes that we develop throughout the course of our lives and contribute to our own sense of reality of ourselves and the
society. Regardless of what will influence and mold us throughout our lives, we have the rationality inclined to know between what is right and
wrong so that we will do good as we want others to do so. We are exposed to cultural values from many sources: family, peers, education, authorities,
and religion. Because we spend most of our formative years with family, the values of the family whether good or bad, are a powerful influence.
These are a reflection of an individual character and culture. We are born into a world of values that have existed throughout humanity 's history. We
absorb these values as children while we navigate our social environment, processing and reevaluating them throughout our adult lives. Every
individual understands that life is important hence he or she needs moral values, which act as guiding principles. Our values form the foundation of
our lives. They dictate the choices we make and determine the direction that our life takes. Our values will influence our decisions related to our
relationships, career, and other activities we engage in. The world we lived is complicated that there exist no universal morality and absolute freedom

So, to answer your question, I care. And for that matter, I bet if you were involved in this situation, you would care.
Now I want to tell you an obvious reason why you should care. This may be so obvious that you overlooked it. Many of our nations laws are based on
moral issues. For instance, you can't hurt another human; you can't steal from another human; and you can't kill another human being. Now, you may
say, "I already know this!" But, if everybody knew this, would we need jails? Let me ask you a question. How successful can you be in jail? My
point with this question is to get you to realize that you can't be successful in jail.
Nobody grows up saying that they can't wait to go to jail because they know that it is the place to be. Nobody says that if they could just get in jail
they know that they could be the best prisoner, and could have the biggest cell. This may be taking immorality to an extreme, but it happens. An
immoral life could send a person to jail. I can tell you some of the consequences of an immoral life, but I can't make you be moral. Morality is not
imposed upon you by society. Morality is self imposed; it is something in us, and defines what constitutes a human being.

Morality As Good Or Bad? Essay
MORALITY
(MORALITY)
"He makes the point that we judge particular acts as good or bad and that we say things like, "He ought to have done this or he ought to have done
that." How can these be unless there was a supreme morality that we could compare our actions and thoughts against?"
– C.W. Lewis, Author of "Mere Christianity"–
The definition of morality is, best described as, "beliefs about what is right behavior and what is wrong behavior. The degree to which something is
right and good. The moral goodness or badness of something", according to Merriam–Webster Dictionary. An article from, Pursing the Truth Ministries,
(http://www.pursuingthetruth.org/sermons/files/conscienceAndMorality.htm), it says,
"Morality can be broken down into three different areas, Individual morality, Systems of principles and judgments (moral values) shared within a
cultural, religious, secular, humanist or philosophical community and Codes of behavior or conduct derived from the moral code."
Our moral values are derive by the culture that we live in. For example, our surrounding environment that we choose to surround ourselves with like our
religion, our peers, and our towns we live in. We achieve our moral values through our personal experiences, which can be seen through peer pressure,
conscience, our beliefs and by the law that we set for ourselves.
The Bible talks about morality and as Christians how we are to live by the principles set forth. In (Mark 7:20–23) NIV, "What comes out

If someone hits another person, their response is not "it is not wrong to hit someone," it is something like "if you knew how much they were
bugging me, you would know why I hit them." People are so concerned about breaking these rules they are constantly making excuses. Why would
they be so concerned if there was no inherent law given to men when they are created? We can also look at cultures throughout history for evidence
of this law. If one looks at history, they would be able to see that there are certain good and vices common to all civilizations throughout history.
There are always small differences in the morals of civilizations, but there are certain one's that are common to all. For example, it has never been
thought that cowardice was a virtue or that honesty was bad. Besides this fact, the differences in morals between these civilizations are also
scrutinized by outsiders. One can not make a distinction that one culture's morals are any better than another's unless they are admitting there is a
real Right that one cultures morals are closer to than the others. There must be this real Right and real Wrong standard in order for any two to be
judged by. Where does this moral standard come from? It was not made up by men, so why are men so compelled to follow it? Men are under the

that a moral decline is a decline in knowing the different between right or wrong. In another word our moral is like a guide for every choice we make

anything that can affect its unity. Affecting the family unity will have a great impact on children life. One of the impacts is that it could create a

It was about 13 degrees out and the sun had just started to peek over the mountains behind our house. It was a magnificent morning. It was one of

Honesty and deceit. Compassion and Neglect. Benevolence and malevolence. All these represent the extremes in the spectrum of morality. From the
general societal viewpoint, the former represents the attitudes which should be admired, rewarded and emulated, while the latter represents the attitudes
which should be abhorred, punished and discouraged. Now philosophers, not being satisfied with leaving things well enough alone, endeavour to

the cheetah in injuring and killing the gazelle, just as no one would find fault with the gazelle if it happened to contribute to the death of the cheetah

Reflection Paper On Moral Values
Reflective Essay (Morals) Morals and virtues have been a part of society and are pivotal to surviving in any culture. All over the world, people are
raised differently and have different beliefs that ground them to their culture. Personally, growing up in a religious household I can see how that has
affected me and the foundation that my morals are based on. I think that there are different cultures that have different morals and as difficult as it is to
understand sometimes it is very important to respect their beliefs. That being said, it is important to strive to live under a moral code that I think is
best. The vast variety of ethics and different moral beliefs can definitely cause awkwardness or make some situations uncomfortable depending on
the clashing cultures. Although discussing morals can lead to awkward and uncomfortable situations, it is important to stick to your moral
foundations and respect other cultures as best you can. Growing up in a moderately wealthy religious family in the United States, I had the ability
to pick and choose which set of morals I followed. Although my family did play a huge rule in creating the foundation I live my life with, I was
very free to decide which path I chose. As I grew up, the influence of my parents slowly began to lessen and the virtues I had learned from them
began to mold me into the person I am today. I was also raised in a highly religious household. Even though I am slowly moving away from the
church going Christian I once was, the morals they engrained into me are things I will hopefully never forget. The last and possibly most
important ground was where I was raised. The suburb outside of Cleveland Ohio where I grew up wasn't the worst place to be raised, but it has
definitely changed my morals from the ones set by my parents and the church. Often times in school, I would have inner conflicts with the virtues set
by my church, and the nefarious activities my friends and I would want to do. I think this is a part of growing up. This struggle has rounded my

Morals Vs. Ethics : Morals And Ethics Essay
Morals vs. Ethics
Morals and ethics are often thought of as interchangeable terms, and both can be applied in various situations. Morals are ultimately the "groundwork"
for ethics. However, the two nouns have a distinct meaning.
Morals are internal principles that a person focuses upon when deciding between right or wrong conduct. A person's true character can be revealed by
understanding that said person's morals. Ethics are a set of rules or rules of conduct that a person follows due to social or company standards. For
example, stealing money from your workplace would be considered unethical, and disrespecting your coworkers would be immoral. In addition, both
morals and ethics could be applied in both situations.
Another way to explain the difference between the two nouns is to discuss the alleged origins of both morals and ethics. Morality first came about in
the Latin language. It is derived from the word "mos", meaning custom. On the other hand, ethics is derived from the Greek word "ethos", meaning
character. As I said before, both morals and ethics have similar terminology, but each have a separate description.

One is the ancient system, a system that developed before humans could speak. This system drives our emotions. It is with this system that humans
received their instinctual reactions to specific situations; it is these sorts of "gut reactions" that enabled human survival in ancient times. The other is a

This system allows us to question our instinctual reactions and determine some explanation as to why we feel a particular way. However, he feels that
these two complex systems are subconsciously active within the individual; he does not believe that people are aware of these concepts affecting their

Philosophers around the world have debated the meaning of morality for centuries. However, it is a word too subjective to be either denoted or
defined. Aristotle, often referred to as the father of philosophy, advised that one could determine what is moral by examining the mean between two
"less desirable" extremes. For example, courage is a mean between fear and thoughtless rashness; generosity, between extravagance and parsimony.
Plato argued that "to know the good is to do the good." In other words, those who behave immorally due so out of mere ignorance, not defiance.

This reward system trains us to believe that what is legal is moral. Although a person may be a law–abiding citizen, he or she may not necessarily be

The morality of an individual is also based on his or her childhood. Parents have an immense effect on their children's values. For instance, if parents
teach their child at early ages to be a hard–worker, to be honest and true, and to have integrity, then it is likely that the child will grow up with these
morals instilled within them. However, some children grow to be the antithesis of their parents. They see that their parents are immoral and so they
intentionally grow to think and behave differently. If so, is the child immoral for defying his or her parents, or is the child moral for defying his or her
immoral parents?
Another factor in determining one's morals is one's religiosity. For instance, some religions, such as Hinduism, believe in animal sacrifices as a way of
worshiping; however, other religions, such as Catholicism, do not. Thus, to a Catholic, the sacrifice of innocent animals may seem immoral whereas
followers of the Hindu religion view the practice as sacred. Therefore, one cannot conclude that simply because a person is religious, he or she is also

response to a letter some clergymen had written after a direct action march Dr. King had participated in. In their letter the clergymen had praised the
local police officers and media for the nonviolent and calm manner in which the situation was handled. It was this praise that prompted Dr King to

even more so, to use moral means to preserve immoral ends."

This is a perfect example of where a law had existed that was immoral.
King also struggles with the issues of laws he believes are moral, however they have immoral consequences. For example, King states, "For
instance, I have been arrested on a charge of parading without a permit." Dr. King believes this is fair and that the law against parading without a
permit is just. However as King continues to discuss his argument he seems to believe that the law is immoral "when it is used to maintain
segregation and to deny citizens the First Amendment privilege of peaceful assembly and protest." Here King describes the struggle between his
desires to obey the law, while expressing his need to openly protest those laws in which he views as morally unjust.
The final moral issue Dr. King confronts is the issue of segregation. He remarks in his essay, "I can urge men to obey the 1954 decision of the
Supreme Court, for it is morally right; and I can urge them to disobey segregation ordinances, for they are morally wrong." Here is a perfect example
of King's struggle with laws and their relevance to morality. On one hand King supports the Supreme Court's decision to desegregate the schools
because it is morally correct. On the other hand he would urge people to disobey segregation ordinances because desegregation in schools is only half

The enormous flux of information which includes sex videos, sex messages or other media related to sex are also become available to anyone who
can get on the internet. The panic was discovered by concerning parents and education advocates and then spreaded by journalists, news and the
public discussion with supports from academia scholars. Media describe internet as a "a new and vexing burden" on parents (Harmon). Fears rise
from the parents, teachers and the common public. The sexual transmitted disease discovered on teenagers and teen girl pregnancy scared the society.
The pandemic moral panic diffuses as fast as it can through parents discoursing and media portraying lament parents helplessly find out their teenage
children start to have sex. " 'Huge hickeys on my 16 y/o son's neck,' divulges one message, 'Our daughter had sex!' runs another", medias such as the
New York Times reported on those desperate parents spreading the moral panic of teenagers having sex (Harmon). As helpless victims, parents
immediately blame their findings to the wires they hooked up at home. " 'What do you do when your child is caught exchanging sexually tainted
messages through E–mail?' one mother asked recently on a World Wide Web site called Parent Soup. 'I hate to restrict an educational tool, but what do
you do?' (Harmon). Thus giving the public a victim that is easy to attack and

Moral Development Essay

  • 1. Moral Development Essay The moral development of a person's character will have a major impact on society as a whole. If we fail to show children moral responsibility they in turn will lack the moral and ethical sense of values. The critical importance of the early years remains crucial to all later development. With all the violence and unsuitable language in film, television, and music today's society poses an even larger threat on children. Moral functioning involves self–esteem, self–control, and altruistic behavior. It seems as if children are developing at a faster rate than previous generations. If we fail to instill morals than we may fail to produce children that have the conscience to decide what is right from what is wrong. If children grow up lacking...show more content... I have designed an experiment that will help determine if girls are more moral than boys. Through the local elementary and junior high schools in Los Angeles, California I have found 25 girls and 25 boys that range from five to twelve years of age. All the students come from affluent neighborhoods and are from households that have married parents and they are all Caucasians. During this experiment the first thing that will be done is to divide the children up according to age and sex. The children will then view videotapes, which are the independent variable, of set–up moral scenarios and write down what they would do in that particular situation that they had viewed. The dependent variable of this experiment is the moral outcome. All the participants in this experiment are in a controlled environment. A few of the problems with this experiment are that the group of students comes from the same background, same area, and all from married parents. There is no diversity in ethnicity or culture. This experiment may not prove my hypothesis to be correct but it may help to validate whether or not this topic is promising enough to continue on with the research. If the findings are true and girls are more moral than boys we need to find out why that is. What we can do to change it. What is it that is making girls more moral? Is it society or the way that the child is raised? Many important questions will arise from this Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Reflection Paper On Morality Each day, with the new experiences and challenges a new day brings, we may find ourselves facing the trials of what morality truly means to us. A few months ago, if you had asked me to tell you what my morals were and how I would interpret the term morality, I would have just told you my whole life story. I used to think my life and the experiences I have had were the only things that formed my views on moral law and what I believe is the right way to treat the people around you. Now, since I've participated in this class, my opinions on morality are not only shaped just by my surroundings and my life experiences, but they are also shaped by the nations and cultures that surround me today and the exposure to diversity that they have provided me through business and culture. In order to form a developed opinion on the definition of morality, we can look at the word diversity. This is a word that has means different things to different people. Personally, it is a word that I believe has a large impact on our world. Diversity is not only a lot of different cultures and backgrounds in one place at the same time, but also how these different cultures and individuals interact with each other throughout the world. This idea can be compared to a friendship between two people and the support and acceptance they may have of each other's sociocultural differences.The biggest thing I took away from this class was from one specific discussion we had on whether or not it is our moral Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Morals, Values, and Ethics Essays Morals, Values, and Ethics Morals, values and ethics define who we are and what we believe. Culture, religion, and many other things affect our beliefs. One uses various types off ethics when surrounded by different groups. Knowing between right and wrong is a good foundation to practicing good ethics and morals. These things make morals, ethics, and values important in society. Many things can contribute to what you think is morally right or wrong. Religion, for example, may create a barrier on to what extent you do something. Some religions set rules, or guidelines on which they limit what people do. Cultures, as well, contribute to people's decisions. Many times our values and ethics disagree with different people who hold different...show more content... This doesn't mean our values or ethics are wrong it just means we think differently than others. When surrounded by different groups, one uses various types of ethics. For example when one is surrounded by friends and brothers or sisters one forgets what on was taught by our elders about manners and about being courteous, but when dealing with elders or a superior, certain carefulness is necessary. One cannot just say anything that pops out into one's head, because one can be judged accordingly and would be thought to be vulgar or disrespectful. We develop many values and ethics through past experiences whether it is a positive or negative experience. These thoughts and beliefs are what guide us through our life. Knowing between right and wrong is a good foundation to practicing good ethics and morals. In today's world, individuals can make a single decision that can have an extreme positive or negative effect on their family, their employer, a nation, and even on the entire world. The life we lead reflects the strength of our character. For example, if we choose to steal, instead of earning it that makes one of weak character or morals. Like in The Pardoner's Tale from Chaucer, " greed is the root of all evil." Ethics are different for each person, but for the most part, people want to be known as a good person. One wants to be known as someone who can be trusted, and one is concerned about his or her relationships Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. Moral Definition Essay Moral If asked what the definition of moral most people would give an opaque answer about right and wrong decisions. In reality the word moral is much more complicated than that. Is moral defined as what a person believes is right or what the society around them believes is right? According to OxfordDictonary.com moral is a person's standard of behavior or beliefs concerning what is and is not acceptable for them to do. With such a broad term the word moral is limited to the context the word is placed in. An important topic in the news nowadays is the 2016 election. Many Americans are concerned with Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton's moral. Some people believe that due to Trump's recent sexual comments unearthed in a leaked tape from 2005 that he is a man of bad moral. In most societies only the most moral and kind people are treated with respect, something that is incredibly important on the global political stage. Will a president with overall negative moral be able to make trade deals and "Make America Great Again" if he is not respected by the American people and our allies? This is an example of moral being based on what society believes is right. Another interpretation of moral is what a certain individual believes to be right. Again the 2016 election can be applied here. Hillary Clinton, a senator with countless conspiracies, was recently...show more content... Most people have heard the common phrase "Moral of the story is..." before. Many old folk lores tell stories that have an important meaning in the end of what is right. For example the story of the tortoise and the hare tells the audience a person with a good moral is patience and always takes their time. Most of these stories present, usually using animals, an example of how having a good moral benefits the main character. This relates to the earlier statements about how said main character's actions are perceived by the characters around Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 5. Essay on moral compass In my past 18 years, I have been living in an environment that people telling me what should I do and what should I not to do. My mum taught me to be a good role model for my younger sister, my dad told me to study hard so I can have a good future. By going to school, teachers teach me that what is 'right' and 'wrong' from the textbook and I have also been learning that from the TV, newspaper and radio. The mass media is always a channel for me to receive what is 'right' and 'wrong' about the social. For example, there are critics about the politics, environmental issues etc.From time to time, my moral compass had been shaped by my parents and the social norms. Human beings always place their own interest on the top priority while...show more content... Now, I have to behave well in front of my sister. My moral compass tells me what to do as a good sister and this always stop me from what I really want to do in my heart. It upsets me because 'role model' has become a burden for me to do something I really like. For example, I would like to learn street dance but my mother rejected it with not to affect adversely on my sister. She thought that I should put more effort on studying but not something which is not related to academic. In school, I am the pianist of the school choir and I am responsible for the playing the piano part in different occasion. When I was in form 1, I was told to be the pianist for the Speech Day and it really affected my life in secondary school a lot. Since all the pianists playing in Speech Day were in Form 5 before, I became the youngest pianist ever in my school. People questioned why I can stand on the stage because they think I am not qualified for that. I would like to do my best every time on stage so that people would agree with me and understand the effort that I have paid. As a result, I have tremendous pressure as my moral compass tells me to perform well before going out to perform as there are a lot of people looking at me and I would want to show them I am excellent player. Moral compass is easily affected by others. I am a person always get lost although I know Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. My View Of Human Morality Essay My view of human morality is that it is influenced by individual culture and experience. Because I believe that as human beings, we all have our own values, beliefs and attitudes that we develop throughout the course of our lives and contribute to our own sense of reality of ourselves and the society. Regardless of what will influence and mold us throughout our lives, we have the rationality inclined to know between what is right and wrong so that we will do good as we want others to do so. We are exposed to cultural values from many sources: family, peers, education, authorities, and religion. Because we spend most of our formative years with family, the values of the family whether good or bad, are a powerful influence. These are a reflection of an individual character and culture. We are born into a world of values that have existed throughout humanity 's history. We absorb these values as children while we navigate our social environment, processing and reevaluating them throughout our adult lives. Every individual understands that life is important hence he or she needs moral values, which act as guiding principles. Our values form the foundation of our lives. They dictate the choices we make and determine the direction that our life takes. Our values will influence our decisions related to our relationships, career, and other activities we engage in. The world we lived is complicated that there exist no universal morality and absolute freedom and since our morals are Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 7. Essay about Morality Morality Moral philosophy is very important to the success of an individual. But, before I tell you why moral philosophy is so important, and how it has helped me in my life, let me give you a little background knowledge. Rational knowledge has two components. These components are material and formal. Formal knowledge is not object oriented, and is based on reason. Formal knowledge is logic, or the laws of thought. Material knowledge is object oriented, and has two components. These two components are natural and moral. Natural law is physics. It determines what is the case, and how things behave in nature. On the other hand, moral law determines what things ought to be. Morality is something humans think about, and is...show more content... So, to answer your question, I care. And for that matter, I bet if you were involved in this situation, you would care. Now I want to tell you an obvious reason why you should care. This may be so obvious that you overlooked it. Many of our nations laws are based on moral issues. For instance, you can't hurt another human; you can't steal from another human; and you can't kill another human being. Now, you may say, "I already know this!" But, if everybody knew this, would we need jails? Let me ask you a question. How successful can you be in jail? My point with this question is to get you to realize that you can't be successful in jail. Nobody grows up saying that they can't wait to go to jail because they know that it is the place to be. Nobody says that if they could just get in jail they know that they could be the best prisoner, and could have the biggest cell. This may be taking immorality to an extreme, but it happens. An immoral life could send a person to jail. I can tell you some of the consequences of an immoral life, but I can't make you be moral. Morality is not imposed upon you by society. Morality is self imposed; it is something in us, and defines what constitutes a human being. I am sure that many of you have participated in team sports.

Essay MORALITY (MORALITY) "He makes the point that we judge particular acts as good or bad and that we say things like, "He ought to have done this or he ought to have done that." How can these be unless there was a supreme morality that we could compare our actions and thoughts against?" – C.W. Lewis, Author of "Mere Christianity"– The definition of morality is, best described as, "beliefs about what is right behavior and what is wrong behavior. The degree to which something is right and good. The moral goodness or badness of something", according to Merriam–Webster Dictionary. An article from, Pursing the Truth Ministries, (http://www.pursuingthetruth.org/sermons/files/conscienceAndMorality.htm), it says, "Morality can be broken down into three different areas, Individual morality, Systems of principles and judgments (moral values) shared within a cultural, religious, secular, humanist or philosophical community and Codes of behavior or conduct derived from the moral code." Our moral values are derive by the culture that we live in. For example, our surrounding environment that we choose to surround ourselves with like our religion, our peers, and our towns we live in. We achieve our moral values through our personal experiences, which can be seen through peer pressure, conscience, our beliefs and by the law that we set for ourselves. The Bible talks about morality and as Christians how we are to live by the principles set forth. In (Mark 7:20–23) NIV, "What comes out Get more content on HelpWriting.net

This questions leads to another relevant question: why be moral?

If someone hits another person, their response is not "it is not wrong to hit someone," it is something like "if you knew how much they were bugging me, you would know why I hit them." People are so concerned about breaking these rules they are constantly making excuses. Why would they be so concerned if there was no inherent law given to men when they are created? We can also look at cultures throughout history for evidence of this law. If one looks at history, they would be able to see that there are certain good and vices common to all civilizations throughout history. There are always small differences in the morals of civilizations, but there are certain one's that are common to all. For example, it has never been thought that cowardice was a virtue or that honesty was bad. Besides this fact, the differences in morals between these civilizations are also scrutinized by outsiders. One can not make a distinction that one culture's morals are any better than another's unless they are admitting there is a real Right that one cultures morals are closer to than the others. There must be this real Right and real Wrong standard in order for any two to be judged by. Where does this moral standard come from? It was not made up by men, so why are men so compelled to follow it? Men are under the influence of a variety of laws all the time.

It was about 13 degrees out and the sun had just started to peek over the mountains behind our house. It was a magnificent morning. It was one of those crisp, cold mornings with no wind and I could hear for miles and miles. I remember hearing my neighbor's dog, Orvis, barking two miles away. I kept walking for about a quarter mile until I came upon a field that was always a hot spot for deer in the morning. It was an exciting feeling to be out in the woods with the deer, yet at the same time, a terrifying feeling. Was I going to fail yet another year of not bagging my buck? I was anxious as to what my family and friends would think of me. I needed to get a deer in the worst way. As the morning wore on I began to get anxious and fidgety feeling that no deer were going to come. As I was contemplating whether to leave my stand in the field, I recognized two deer grazing peacefully in the middle of the field. I quickly pulled up and looked through my scope and saw nothing but green fuzz. I was so nervous that I had forgotten to readjust the focus on my scope. As I did, the deer saw me move and began to trot away from me and into the protection of the forest. I managed to get my scope in focus in time to see that there was a buck and a doe.

From the general societal viewpoint, the former represents the attitudes which should be admired, rewarded and emulated, while the latter represents the attitudes which should be abhorred, punished and discouraged. Now philosophers, not being satisfied with leaving things well enough alone, endeavour to discover why this is so. Why do we admire acts of kindness? Why do we loathe acts of malice?

The chase begins. Eventually, the cheetah gets the better of one of the gazelles. Perhaps it had a bum leg, perhaps it was weak. One crushing bite to the windpipe ends the chase. What better illustration of life than this Discovery Channel scenario? Nietzsche would have loved the Discovery Channel because it illustrates Nietzsche's definition of life as a 'will to power'. The will to power is any organism's natural inclination to overpower, appropriate and exploit others in a way that best benefits the organism. The cheetah is exercising its will to power by chasing, killing and devouring the gazelle. The gazelles will to power is to escape, robbing the cheetah of sustenance. No one would find fault with the cheetah in injuring and killing the gazelle, just as no one would find fault with the gazelle if it happened to contribute to the death of the cheetah by starvation. We ourselves are animals as well, therefore, how can we be blameworthy when we exploit, and overpower other organisms, Nietzsche asks. We are just as entitled to life as any other organism, and being so, we have the natural right to exercise our will to power. Therefore, any notion we have of 'treating others as we would want to be treated', is faulty and Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 13. Reflection Paper On Moral Values Reflective Essay (Morals) Morals and virtues have been a part of society and are pivotal to surviving in any culture. All over the world, people are raised differently and have different beliefs that ground them to their culture. Personally, growing up in a religious household I can see how that has affected me and the foundation that my morals are based on. I think that there are different cultures that have different morals and as difficult as it is to understand sometimes it is very important to respect their beliefs. That being said, it is important to strive to live under a moral code that I think is best. The vast variety of ethics and different moral beliefs can definitely cause awkwardness or make some situations uncomfortable depending on the clashing cultures. Although discussing morals can lead to awkward and uncomfortable situations, it is important to stick to your moral foundations and respect other cultures as best you can. Growing up in a moderately wealthy religious family in the United States, I had the ability to pick and choose which set of morals I followed. Although my family did play a huge rule in creating the foundation I live my life with, I was very free to decide which path I chose. As I grew up, the influence of my parents slowly began to lessen and the virtues I had learned from them began to mold me into the person I am today. I was also raised in a highly religious household. Even though I am slowly moving away from the church going Christian I once was, the morals they engrained into me are things I will hopefully never forget. The last and possibly most important ground was where I was raised. The suburb outside of Cleveland Ohio where I grew up wasn't the worst place to be raised, but it has definitely changed my morals from the ones set by my parents and the church. Often times in school, I would have inner conflicts with the virtues set by my church, and the nefarious activities my friends and I would want to do. I think this is a part of growing up. This struggle has rounded my morals out leading me to be a good mix of both uptight and relaxed depending on the situation. Regardless of the journey to moral satisfaction, the goal of perfection should never leave your Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 14. Morals Vs. Ethics : Morals And Ethics Essay Morals vs. Ethics Morals and ethics are often thought of as interchangeable terms, and both can be applied in various situations. Morals are ultimately the "groundwork" for ethics. However, the two nouns have a distinct meaning. Morals are internal principles that a person focuses upon when deciding between right or wrong conduct. A person's true character can be revealed by understanding that said person's morals. Ethics are a set of rules or rules of conduct that a person follows due to social or company standards. For example, stealing money from your workplace would be considered unethical, and disrespecting your coworkers would be immoral. In addition, both morals and ethics could be applied in both situations. Another way to explain the difference between the two nouns is to discuss the alleged origins of both morals and ethics. Morality first came about in the Latin language. It is derived from the word "mos", meaning custom. On the other hand, ethics is derived from the Greek word "ethos", meaning character. As I said before, both morals and ethics have similar terminology, but each have a separate description.

This system could be derived from a number of factors: religion, culture, and upbringing. It is difficult enough to determine what an individual's morals are, but going further to determine how we came to possess those morals is even more ambitious. Still, regardless of its difficulty, this subject consumes many philosophers and psychologists.

One is the ancient system, a system that developed before humans could speak. This system drives our emotions. It is with this system that humans received their instinctual reactions to specific situations; it is these sorts of "gut reactions" that enabled human survival in ancient times. The other is a modern system, a system that initiated when language was invented. This system, he explains, is more associated with our ability to reason and judge. This system allows us to question our instinctual reactions and determine some explanation as to why we feel a particular way. However, he feels that these two complex systems are subconsciously active within the individual; he does not believe that people are aware of these concepts affecting their morality. These two systems are the key or answer to why moral dumbfounding occurs. It occurs when the two systems conflictВ—when reasoning cannot explain your initial reaction. Furthermore, Haidt believes that emotions are linked more to one's subconscious, while reasoning is linked to one's consciousness. He believes most philosophy focuses too much on the conscious while underestimating the power of the subconscious. In regards to his experiment testing one's disgust for eating one's pet, he believes this disgust originated in ancient times when people first began to eat meat.

  • 16. What is Morality? Essay What is Morality? Philosophers around the world have debated the meaning of morality for centuries. However, it is a word too subjective to be either denoted or defined. Aristotle, often referred to as the father of philosophy, advised that one could determine what is moral by examining the mean between two "less desirable" extremes. For example, courage is a mean between fear and thoughtless rashness; generosity, between extravagance and parsimony. Plato argued that "to know the good is to do the good." In other words, those who behave immorally due so out of mere ignorance, not defiance.

This reward system trains us to believe that what is legal is moral. Although a person may be a law–abiding citizen, he or she may not necessarily be moral. The morality of an individual is also based on his or her childhood. Parents have an immense effect on their children's values. For instance, if parents teach their child at early ages to be a hard–worker, to be honest and true, and to have integrity, then it is likely that the child will grow up with these morals instilled within them. However, some children grow to be the antithesis of their parents. They see that their parents are immoral and so they intentionally grow to think and behave differently. If so, is the child immoral for defying his or her parents, or is the child moral for defying his or her immoral parents? Another factor in determining one's morals is one's religiosity. For instance, some religions, such as Hinduism, believe in animal sacrifices as a way of worshiping; however, other religions, such as Catholicism, do not. Thus, to a Catholic, the sacrifice of innocent animals may seem immoral whereas followers of the Hindu religion view the practice as sacred. Therefore, one cannot conclude that simply because a person is religious, he or she is also moral. There are thousands of religions throughout the world; who has the authority to determine whose Get more content on HelpWriting.net

This essay was written in response to a letter some clergymen had written after a direct action march Dr. King had participated in. In their letter the clergymen had praised the local police officers and media for the nonviolent and calm manner in which the situation was handled. It was this praise that prompted Dr King to write: "I have tried to make clear that it is wrong to use immoral means to attain moral ends. But now I must affirm that it is just as wrong or perhaps even more so, to use moral means to preserve immoral ends." The beginning of this statement refers to the idea of...show more content... This is a perfect example of where a law had existed that was immoral. King also struggles with the issues of laws he believes are moral, however they have immoral consequences. For example, King states, "For instance, I have been arrested on a charge of parading without a permit." Dr. King believes this is fair and that the law against parading without a permit is just. However as King continues to discuss his argument he seems to believe that the law is immoral "when it is used to maintain segregation and to deny citizens the First Amendment privilege of peaceful assembly and protest." Here King describes the struggle between his desires to obey the law, while expressing his need to openly protest those laws in which he views as morally unjust. The final moral issue Dr. King confronts is the issue of segregation. He remarks in his essay, "I can urge men to obey the 1954 decision of the Supreme Court, for it is morally right; and I can urge them to disobey segregation ordinances, for they are morally wrong." Here is a perfect example of King's struggle with laws and their relevance to morality. On one hand King supports the Supreme Court's decision to desegregate the schools because it is morally correct. On the other hand he would urge people to disobey segregation ordinances because desegregation in schools is only half the battle.

When I walked inside to get a coffee I saw two kids and a father eating at the counter. After I had made the coffee, I went and paid then proceeded to leave. When I walked out I saw the father trying to figure out what was wrong with the car but I walked by. Situations where people decide to help people who need it the most even a ride or a tow ride home we tend to be so busy with our lives we forget to help those in need so they can move on with theirs as well.
