It appears to me that our motivations do influence our individual sense of morality. I often see the debate centered around morality being relative or absolute. Why not both? We all have been influenced by our environment and are often reminded of the differences in the sense of relative morality when interacting within different cultures.
It also appears we are all instilled with certain absolute morals. Any sane person, would agree that it is immoral to torture children, issue wholesale death to West Highland Terriers, or discard perfectly good cheesecake.
