Morality

Morality from moralitas 'manner, character, proper behavior' is the differentiation of intentions, decisions as well as actions between those that are distinguished as proper correct and those that are improper wrong. Morality can be the body of indications or principles derived from a code of conduct from a specific philosophy, religion or culture, or it can derive from a specification that a grownup believes should be universal. Morality may also be specifically synonymous with "goodness" or "rightness".

Moral philosophy includes meta-ethics, which studies abstract issues such(a) as moral ontology together with moral epistemology, in addition to normative ethics, which studies more concrete systems of moral decision-making such as deontological ethics and consequentialism. An example of normative ethical philosophy is the Golden Rule, which states: "One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself."

Immorality is the active opposition to morality i.e. opposition to that which is good or right, while amorality is variously defined as an unawareness of, indifference toward, or disbelief in any particular family of moral standards or principles.
