Recommended: The importance of morality

What comes to mind when you hear of people that have committed crimes and found guilty of doing something dreadful? If you are like most people you do not understand how someone could do something so immoral unacceptable which makes you wonder where their consciousness was right? Maybe their moral awareness was lacking or perhaps they just tuned it out and had chosen doing the wrong thing over what was morally right. If only they just could have stopped to take a deep breath and really paid attention to that sick feeling telling them not to do it.

Morale awareness what is it? After all, sometimes there is some misconception with the meaning and its importance. According to Ethics Unwrapped “moral awareness is the first step to acting ethically” (Being Your Best self, Part 1: Moral Awareness, 2018). Okay, now that we summed that up that leads us to behaving ethically what are we saying? Basically, it pertains to your morals and a set of key principles; connected to what is right and what is wrong in conduct. Now that the confusion is summed up a little I myself will get back to talking about my morale awareness. For me it is like a long trail or pathway and along that path is your first step taken to your best ethical behavior. Personally, I’m very aware of my moral self and in fact, it has helped me make decisions and has alerted me to danger at times. Just what do I mean by that well moral means that you are distressed with all fundamentals of both right and wrong actions and you can see decency and mercilessness of human integrity, right? What about awareness am I truly able to apprehend, feel, or be attentive of my beliefs and concerns? I myself cannot speak for anyone else but for myself, my answer is a definite yes.

  • The Common Sense Hierarchy Of Imorality?: What Is Wrong?

    1443 Words  | 3 Pages

    The ‘common sense hierarchy of immorality’ is that crimes of intention are more immoral than those of indifference. It can be argued that corporate crimes or crimes of indifference are the real crimes that cause the most human suffering due to official crime statistics. The media can be said to keep the real stories hidden from the public in order to keep it appealing and keep it’s users in fear so that they can maximise their number of users and profit. In my opinion, I believe that the way we view crime through this ‘common sense hierarchy of immorality’ is wrong we are afraid of things that can be said, we have a 90% chance of dying from. We have more of a chance to die from crimes of indifference than those of intention. It can be said that our minds have been constructed to believe that crimes of indifference are less harmful and most of the time mistakes but, it can be argued that when someone does something and has no concern to whom they are harming is more of a problem than someone who intentionally commits a crime. The ‘common sense hierarchy of immorality’ needs to be changed around and base crimes of indifference at the top and intentional crimes at the bottom. It can be argued that in order to start to change people’s way of thinking the media needs to stop portraying the intentional

  • Essay On Morality Is The Individual Free Will

    966 Words  | 2 Pages

    As human beings, our natural instinct causes us to impulsively respond to emotional situations and triggers behavior that becomes learned, a reaction chemically part of us that is deeply rooted in our brains and bodies. The learned behavior and resulting outcome have the ability motivate future behavior. However, the decision and fulfillment of such action relies heavily on self-determination, a product of our nurturing that gives us moral accountability when making tough or emotional choices. As we grow and mature, moral precedents are set when our natural instincts, emotional reactions, and conscious decisions intersect, however, a constant internal battle exists, as we fight back and forth between our instincts, free-will, and moral responsibilities. What we make of this is what arises as our distinct morality.
