I wrote a post awhile back on amorality vs immorality, but what about morality?
Within society there are people who are moral, immoral, and amoral. Beyond the pure libertines and tantrics there are few that would espouse an immoral government/law/code. But equally unsustainable is the purely moral codes usually derived from the highly religious.
Most modern governments and their legal ideals come from a source of amorality. I.e. they leave moral discourse out and go with rational rules developed through reason. The odd thing about this is that amorality is often looked down upon. And the propaganda spews forth often quoting morality. It’s like the discussions leave the enlightenment out of it, even though we are basing so much off of the time period.
I’m sure you folks have thoughts to help me explore this…
