Voted : There is no right or wrong
There is only Zen What is right or wrong is a misconception. We can't split a thought into pure forms of good and bad. What's right for you may not necessarialy be right for someone else. Morality is not concrete nor do people need ancient scrolls attributed to a deity to define their values. Nothing is inherently right or wrong. All fire or all ice. Creation and all that exists, exists some where in the middle.
I think, in its purest form, "right" and "wrong" mean those things that do or do not sustain or promote life, maintain the community, and create a balanced environment. Humans beings are not hard wired to believe in the same concepts of right and wrong, but they have the ability to understaned the long term consequences of their actions--from this, I believe, stem the rudiments for determinng what is right or wrong for a particular community. I stress "particular communuity" because different communities have different ideas about what right and wrong are.
^ Good comment.
Easy! Good things are legal, bad things are against the law. I don't need a religion to tell me that.
We think about it and make a decision for ourselves unlike religious types who blindly obey.
