Ethics is not about principles.?

Try Nietzsche’s Superman approach. The goal of the Superman is to reject the Principles of the Society overcome Nihilism and ultimately become one’s own man living according to Will To Power.

Morality is absolute. It's only people with a perverted sense of ethics that try to make it seem relative.

I think you make some interesting points - words definitely have limitations for the definer and the interpretter.  Its always a rhetoric game and only real thieves hide behind definitions to justify their actions.  As for morality - this is not a truth - it is a social norm - and each society determines what is or isn't moral based on their level of consciousness.  As long as we are trapped in words - we are limiting our consciousness.

No, Morality is personal.  Rules are for everyone.\n\nRules can be set to try and set some kind of moral backing, but it is up to the person whether or not they want to follow the rules.

Both are about values and right and wrong, but ethical usually is more related to professional behavior where morality is more personal.  Government, to me, should act ethically.  When government gets "moral", I feel like they are taking on more personal beliefs.  As a government, I think we need to be ethical about right and wrong, as long as those definitions are universals instead of those related to a scripture.

Doesn't sound as if you have any ethics.

There are no ethics involved when you do lie about something. You have also stolen the information. You have destroyed a trust. You have given a competitor an advantage he would not have had and hurt the first company's future business. You have hurt your fellow employees. You may well have ruined your own reputation as well.

Don't do these kind of things. It's unethical.

There can be little ground for opposing financially sound ethical practices. Problems begin when ill concieved measures or restrictions are hurridly pushed through in the name of ehics without proper analysis of cost and benefits to the community, sometimes with ulterior motives.We all have a duty to protect our businesses against such attempts.

Some say life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Others say life, liberty, and property. Maybe there should be 4 principles.

I think that's a really good question. If I accept the premise that God cannot ask us to do anything that is not moral, then that implies there is a morality independent of Him. On the other hand, if I accept the position that I must do whatever God wants me to do, then I have no way to ascertain whether God is asking me to do right or wrong - I must simply do what He says.

i.t.industry has an association for its professionals and they have instituted their own ethics for their members. PS. i have little faith in ethics as recommended by professional associations -- since their main interest is to protect and enhance the interest of their membership. a case in point is the legal profession --yes, they have work ethics -- but try to fight the billing of a lawyer -- and you end up in their associations -- and (while statistics are not made public) in 99 p.cent of the cases the lawyer gets its due. That is a case off your direct question but it gives you an idea for whom the bell tolls! Hope it helps.

The national interest actually lies in ethics.\nWhile it might not seem so in the short term, acting unethically will weaken us morally. It also prompts others to retaliate etc. like 9/11 which cannot be good for anyone.\n\nWe should lead morally and ethically even if in the short term it puts us at a slight disadvantage.

Yes it is....it not only violates moral ethics, but may also violate your workplace ethics as well.  Speak to your superiors about this situation because it may have been going on for quite some time....

Actually there really isn't.  There is only the major 10.  Everything after that is based on a individuals morals and ethics.
