Objective morality

[Neo-Scholastic]

I see morality as less about finding a set of fixed universal rules for behaviour and more about choosing sides with reference to a recognizable moral standard to which I refer. Such a moral standard would be an at least partially discernable part of reality. I see in reality a creative self-organizing principle struggling to overcome entropy. The creative side, at all levels of reality strives to form wholes from disparate parts: harmonious integrity. Once I have learned to recognize that inherently creative trait of reality, I face the Choice. Do I become a Jedi or a Sith? While I might not make an explicit decision, my actions would still reveal a tacit preference. Either I align myself with effort of reality to manifest harmonious integrity or I give in to the pressures driving everything into chaos and disintegrity. While an Aristotelian pursuit of happiness serves as motivation to seek virtue the standard for evaluative virtue, in people and of situations, is the degree of harmonious integrity found. I could say much more about this but I wanted to put it out there for you all.
