Don't only foolish people endorse the concept of "morality"?

How do you define morality, danzz ? Put your theory where your mouth is, because so far your theories are all hogwash because you don't back up a statement.

Moral people subscribe to the concept of morality.

@J_9, that is one heck of a good answer.

Morality is a set of rules that allow people to interact within a society. Without morality there would be nothing to stop people from abusing other people. From stealing from each other, hurting each other, even murdering each other.

People understand that they need morality to function within a society if that society is to survive. So that's why people believe in it.

If you want to start an intelligent discussion (or ask a meaningful question) about the lines between morals, cultural standards in different parts of the world, and ethics, then do so.

You came here barking out broad simple statements and questions that make you sound like you just arrived on planet Earth.

Do we have a troll on our hands ? He seems to be rattling our chains on a few issues but hasn't come on to back up his statements.

We will see where this goes.
