Moral values are one basis on which we make decisions–right or wrong? good or evil? Other bases are
financial, convenient, aesthetic (an artist), arbitrary (flipping a coin), physical/health, rational (investigating
a product before buying).
INDIVIDUAL MORALITY AND SOCIAL MORALITY
Individual morality
This provides the basis of decisions of and judgments by the individual: honesty, loyalty, good faith, being
responsible
Social morality
Fairness is one basis of law, which helps to govern society and to control individual behavior.
Social morality considers whether an action threatens society’s well-being..
Conflict. Individual morality and social morality may conflict. Is the free downloading/sharing of music
from the Internet a copyright violation? Is using text downloaded from the Internet without footnotes in
student papers plagiarism? Should the government regulate non-harmful sexual acts by consenting adults in
their own homes or adults reading pornography at home?
