It all always comes back to individual beliefs.
That's the one thing that you have absolute control over, what you accept to be true.
What do you know to be true?
The list is pretty short - I exist (I speak therefore I am). Beyond that it's just layers upon layers of beliefs you've accumulated. It's also through carefully managing these beliefs that a small group of people can control most humans.
I rejected the idea of an objective right & wrong about 20 years ago. I believe it's all subjective, although I later learnt that this universe has certain laws that cannot be broken without consequences. The Golden Rule is a simple way of aligning your beliefs with the laws of the universe. I say beliefs because I believe they are precede any thoughts, feelings & actions that arise from within you. Beliefs are precursors & the foundation to the idea of 'free will'. The ability to choose what to believe.
Why don't people seem to have a morals anymore? Our shared beliefs have been corrupted over generations. Beliefs around scarcity, who we are, where we find ourselves & what's important have been inserted into our consciousness. I believe we are at a turning point, that the lies are being exposed & the truth is being revealed.
FreeAsAbove (nprofile…2d2u) has put together a really great video series on morality. I suspect we differ slightly in how we see things, but he condenses the common wisdom of human existence quite well & goes beyond religious dogma. I recommend giving them a watch.
