Developing systems of morality, outside of religious influence.
#18
RE: Developing systems of morality, outside of religious influence.
Awesome!

The fact that you are taking the time to think about it makes me confident you'll be absolutely fine. The only people for whom morality is a genuine mystery are those who entirely lack empathy (psychopaths/sociopaths). Even for those people it still pays to mimic morality most of the time, to avoid pissing people off or going to jail.

For most people, being moral makes them feel good, and being immoral makes them feel guilty.
