MORAL LAWS
Every day that passes in our lives without us really knowing or understanding what did our day really contain and what makes it go on , well there are many answers if u asked such a question , and one of those answers is our moral ethics of life and how we represent it and how do we act with it .
Defining Moral :
The basic meaning of the word "moral" is: relating to, or capable of making the distinction between right and wrong.
God's Law is the ultimate Moral Law , the Ten Commandments do just that. In a simplistic and straightforward way, they clearly make the distinction between right and wrong behavior. It focuses on specific areas of human behavior and says, "Thou shalt do this, and Thou shalt not do that." The moral law makes it very easy for us to understand how we ought to behave ourselves with ourselves and with others .
When God created Adam, He created him with a moral faculty. Stated simply: Adam was created with the capacity to distinguish between behavior that is right, and behavior that is wrong. His moral faculty had the qualities of purity and uprightness. Therefore, Adam was inclined, by virtue of the moral excellence (in the image of God), to choose that which was right and agreeable with God's Moral Law. However, it must be noted this excellence was not incorruptible... that is, the possibility of it's corruption was present. In this case, possibility of corruption soon became reality of corruption, ...

When God created Adam, He created him with a moral faculty. Stated simply: Adam was created with the capacity to distinguish between behavior that is right, and behavior that is wrong. His moral faculty had the qualities of purity and uprightness. Therefore, Adam was inclined, by virtue of the moral excellence (in the image of God), to choose that which was right and agreeable with God's Moral Law. However, it must be noted this excellence was not incorruptible... that is, the possibility of it's corruption was present. In this case, possibility of corruption soon became reality of corruption, and original Purity and uprightness was lost when Adam sinned .
Our moral laws are not born with us , yet we grow to make our own laws and choose to follow them , for example we can choose not to drink because our moral belief says its wrong , however another person might have a different kind of moral belief and say drinking is not wrong at all other might actually believe that drinking is a gift to or from god and it very good and it will bring them to the door steps of haven , but where does our moral laws really come from and how do we choose whether to follow them or break them .
How dose moral laws effect our way of thinking
and by what is it strongly affected :
Well in my own personal opinion I think that each man's moral laws are being strongly effected by 2 main thing , 1st which is his religion , and 2nd is the society he is living in .
Lets start by religion , a man's religion tells him what to do and what not to do , then when he is coming to do so something that is considered as a sin in his religion , his moral senses would start talking to him telling him you are going to do wrong , yet his conscience stays awake and he keeps thinking should he do this or not , he knows if he did it he will gain happiness but in the same time his would have betrayed his morals , for example a Muslim might find it hard to sleep with a woman that is not rightfully and religiously allowed " halal " for him or more specifically his wife , why ? because his religion told him not to do so , thus its now built up in his belief system that this is wrong , yet again if a man with no religion would not think whether is it right or wrong to sleep with the woman he would just do it think of his happiness .
And secondly the society each human lives in , for example if a human lives in a rather more strict society would have some moral beliefs that others living in an open society despite their religions , let's take it to a closer step to our planet earth today , back again to the sleeping example , it's much harder for a man living in the middle east maybe to commit such a sin , further more if might be easier for a man living for example in France, of maybe harder for a villager but easier for a who lives in the city . as we can see its all built in the mind of a single human , and the human chooses to go with his moral ethic of lose his original Purity and uprightness like Adam and Eve did .
Moral laws are nothing but another laws humans made to make a reason for their action and what they do and what they don't , however laws are also made to be broken , and it rather more ironic how a person would break his own very rule and he would break his moral ethics , yet again this pure human nature is it not ?
