Who decides what our moral standards should be?

No, but let's come together and contribute to the development of moral standards.

Whilst both deontological and consequentialist ethics have their appeal both ultimately reduce to some form of intuitionism. Nor do Virtue ethics fare much better. Rights based systems prove fundamentally incoherent are in any case either legalistic or reduce to other systems. Like the poet said, I've seen the nations rise and fall Heard their stories, heard them all But love's the only engine of survival. all the best urban

I decide what my moral standards will be. I was brought up in a strict Christian atmosphere and what I would considered high morals. This was in the 40's and 50's when the US was not as liberal as it is today. My principals in life are to be an upstanding citizen of the world, minding my own business, leaving others to theirs, trying to be a good role model to younger generations, and helping those in need. I do not judge others and their standards. I have found that these standards have done well by me in the past and I see no reason why they shouldn't continue in the future.

Who decides what our moral standards should be? Oh, that'll be me. he hehe all the best urban

No, I dont think so. But the point is how people contributed to the development of moral standards, some have thier principle regarding that ofcourse. So let's wake up and contibute our quota to the developmet of moral standards with either pen or paper. Thanks
