Those traditional rules that are set up by history and the society. For example, it is acceptable in India to pee in the streets, while in France you'd be fined for that.

Morality is basically a set of rules, or a code of conduct that enables civilized people to live together in a society.\nIt has nothing to do with a 'higher power' but primitive people would be unlikely to accept rules and regulations dictated by just another person, so god was invented to keep a journal of who's doing what to whom.

Downfall of mankind n moral decay. These r mere words. Different people make judgment on a particular situation using their own moral standards. Hugging n kissing openly is acceptable to some n abhorred by others. Polygamy is perfectly legal in some c'tries n illegal in others. In some c'tries, prostitution is a legal profession. Sometimes these laws n standards coexist esp in multi-racial, religious n cultural c'tries. Coming back to your question. What standards are u using when u posed this question?

In order to answer your question better I'd have to know what you mean by "traditional" and "modern". But I do relate them to Plato's Morality and to somewhat's Nietzsche's approach to morality.\n\nThe article for morality on wikipedia is very informing. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morality)\n\nFor the first you can search for his book "The Republic" and for the last the book "On the Genealogy of Morals" the links for articles on them are below.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Genealogy_of_Morals\n\nfor Plato's work:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crito (look at Crito's arguments and plato's responses for a quick ride on Plato's thoughs)\n\nAn overview on Plato's Ethic, this might be helpful:\nhttp://plato.stanford.edu/entries/plato-ethics/\n\n\nI hope I could help you a bit,\nMarcos

Just try Googling "gambling sports" and maybe the words "discussion debate morality ethic" and see what comes up.  It's a common enough topic of discussion.  Try your local librarian, too - they are really very good at what they do, they want to help you more than I do, and it's free!

Humans have already had relationships with anything...\nIf your question is looking for moral interpretation...\nYou better do things in life that make you feel comfortable, instead of been looking for approval for something that you know inside is not correct...

There are many things in the world that are not deserving of respect.  However, most everything is deserving of tolerance and, most of all, rational consideration.\n\nIf you want to be respectful towards everything, you're going to have to respect murderers, rapists, etc., etc., people who don't, in my opinion, deserve it.

well society has defined the "norms" ..that is the behaviour accepted by the general public within that society, this can differ depending on which part of the world/country you are in at the moment-different things are accepted in different areas, as normal. On a personal level "normal" behaviour can be defined as that which does not cause alarm, offence or danger to any other person. Although of course individuals may be alarmed, shocked or distressed by many many things, so it is a difficult question to answer. I once saw in a public bathroom, scrawled on the wall..." Do not adjust your attitude, its reality that needs a shake!!" lol

Morals just what are they? They are the difference between right and wrong. If you break one of the ten commandments you are immoral for example.\n\nExamples of moral codes include the golden rule; Wiccan Rede, the Noble Eightfold Path of Buddhism; the ten commandments of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam; and the ten Indian commandments.\n\n\nIf you have done wrong you are immoral. If you do the things that society says you should you could be considered being a moral person.\n\nCulture sometimes plays a role. In one culture what you did that was immoral might be considered as being right in another.

"They are really more like guidelines..."  I heard that once.  Common wisdom is morality is a personal choice, and cannot be obtained by imposing laws.  Laws and penalties can influence behavior by incentive and pushishments.

misising a few words I think ... anyway moral is flexible and relative. if yet you ind yourself in question I guess you have to live with it ...

Morality is a personal choice issue.  You have to decide what it is you believe in and how strongly you believe in it.  It is your life and it is time for you to start laying the foundation for your future and how you want others to see you.

The word "Morals"  in our society has become a joke, because some people try to 'impose' them on others. But if you live your life so that you do not purposely hurt someone, either physically or emotionally, then that is all the morals you need. That is how I try to live. Our actions always affect other people to some degree. We can bring heartache on our Friends and family, or joy. To "Love one another" is not a burdensome command. It is a formula for success.

Wow, what a great question.  Let's first see if we can 'agree' on what morality means.  The traditional definition is that morality means a system or set of beliefs that define what is good or bad.\n\nTo that end, religion and religious traditions, whether Eastern or Wester, certainly due provide a system of beliefs in what is right or wrong - or morality.\n\nThe real question, is this . . . which religious tradition (i.e., Judeo-Christian, Hindu, Islamic, etc.,) provides the "best" system for morality? To answer that question ones must become familiar with the sacred writing and teachings of a given relgious tradition.\n\nMust morality depnd on religion exclusively?  Not necessarily, but it is hard to think of one signficant moral tradition or belief (e.g., don't steal, don't kill) that is not rooted in the Judeo-Christian tradition.\n\nI believe the statement that morality is relative is simply ridiculous.  Moral traditions created by man are relative; but the Judeo-Christian view is that God gave the Law and thus Judeo-Christian morality is based on the character and nature of God, which is anything but relative.  God is absolute, and the final authroity on what is true, good or not.
