A Moral is a standard imposed though the religion of a society.
A Value is a benefit that meets an emotional need.
There will always be a debate and a difference of opinion on what constitutes a Moral Value, or what morals have value, because morals are shared by a society, culture or creed, whereas values are based on emotional needs that are unique to each individual.
For a standard of behaviour to have value, it is required by society to be moral.
For a standard of behaviour to be moral, it is required to have value to the leaders of that society not each individual in society.
Immorality is deemed to be a poor or bad standard of behaviour that has no value to society.
What society sees as morally wrong may have great value to the individual because it meets their emotional needs perfectly.
Moral values raise two important questions:
“Are our values moral”? and “Do our morals have value”?
The answer to both questions is a matter of personal perspective based on the emotional needs that differ for each individual person.
