Egoism: "Drinking is wrong because it is bad for me."
Hedonism: "Drinking is right because it makes me feel good."
Utilitarianism: "Drinking is right because it brings about more good than evil."
Libertarianism: "Drinking is not wrong since it does not infringe on anyone elses liberty. It is not right since I am also at liberty to NOT drink."
Divine Command Theory: "Let's burn witches! the Bible says we should."

Get the Morality mug.A person who is morally deficient is someone who walks the legal line staying in the boundary of the law but teeters on the edge of committing a crime against another person making their life a "legalistic" one as opposed to a "moral" one, which if truly lived would need no laws to apply.

Get the morally reprehensible mug.A fictional organization from the alternate reality game to the Nine Inch Nails Album Year Zero. The purpose of the Bureau is to keep citizens in line and make sure they aren't doing anything they consider "un-american" such as expressing dissapointment with the government. Extreme punishments are handed down to people who do break their laws and use their voice.
