Morality: Objective vs Subjective
Morality: Objective vs Subjective
Morality refers to the knowledge of right and wrong. This very idea opens up a huge pool of ideas. It opens up to the different ideas of what’s right and wrong.
An objective morality is a moral system that is strong, rock-solid, and encourages logic. It is not a thought process that you can easily manipulate. In a nation built on an objective morality, ethics have concrete definitions and can not be bent by an individual. The 613 Mitzvos [are] an objective morality.
A subjective morality is flaccid and relativistic. It relies on the emotions of the people, and because of these emotions, it is extremely manipulatable (and sometimes unstable). A society dominated by a subjective morality can be emotionally exploited for the gain of the manipulator. Trends are more inclinable, our ethical codes become more malleable, and the line between right from wrong grows blurry. In a society dominated by a subjective morality, people become a slave to their emotions. A subjective morality leads to a trend-mentality, and it will be one that will always be subject to change. It is unstable because it can not stand the test of time.
In a society dominated by a subjective morality, we have those that wish to take advantage of the unspirited. These people can then be pulled into the void of nihilism where morals aren’t perceived as relevant. An example of this are the Cultural Liberals. These social progressives are extremely trend-oriented and do not have any appreciation of an objective moral compass. The socio-political ideas that these groups pander to heavily rely on trends and will typically discard the trend ideas once they are deemed unpopular. These trends influence the direction of the moral consciousness of humanity.
These are the people who are capable of ignoring the holiness of human life because of an interest in attaining various privileges that promote selfish behavior. These dangerous ideas are in direct contradiction to an objective morality, and have opened up the door to the power of evil, and when an entire nation is governed by [this [negative adjective and noun], then we can expect [corrupt leadership]. So it shouldn’t surprise anyone that a degenerating society would have such horrible leaders like those that ruled over the world’s most infamous governments. These leaders didn’t just come out of nowhere, they climbed their way up a society that tolerated [vile, immoral behavior] that slowly began to [accept the ideas] of these horrible dictators. It would make sense that [an entire nation] full of [immoral supporters] would be able to accept some of these corrupt people as leaders.
