What is
morality?
"The quality of being moral conforming to standards and principles. A
religious code of conduct". A moral right; "A claim people would think is
justified but not necessarily supported by law". F.S. Harraps Law Dictionary.
Principles concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad
behaviour
Morality is understanding the distinction between
right and wrong and living according to that understanding, and ethics is
the philosophy of how that morality guides individual and group behavior.
The two are closely related, with morality being the foundation of ethics
Moral
views can
change
over time
In the state opium used to be used by the middle classes and thought not to be
morally wrong, but when it was criminalised by the law attitudes changed when the
hardened users were perceived as low-life. It then was morally unacceptable
Ethics moral principles that govern a person's behaviour or the conducting of an activity
Law Rules of conduct approved and enforced by the government of and over a
certain territory
Definitions
Law
requires a
definition,
but morality
can be
many
things.
Justice is an aspect of morality
Justice is concerned with how classes of individuals are treated. Equality before the
Law is considered vital in modern societies. Certain classes of person such as MP's
and judges have greater immunity regarding their freedom of speech. And police
officers have greater powers than ordinary subjects. To prevent abuse by officials of
these privileges there are extensive rules of behaviour.
Law and morality compared
Law

Backed up by

condemnation
It might force you to

Individual
principle
or
preference
Issues of law and morality have always been at 'odds' with each other. Many people
argue that not everything that is illegal, for example, parking on a yellow line, is
immoral; not everything that is immoral, for example, breaking a promise, is illegal.
Morality is 'personal' to the individual; law must be 'universal' to society.
