Arbitrary Morality

When things are considered immoral purely based on religious and/or cultural dogma rather than any logical sense of ethics.

Person 1: Loud laughter, homosexuality, and bikinis are sinful!
Person 2: That's arbitrary morality right there.

Ivory Moralism

A form of moral judgment that emerges from within ivory tower environments, characterized by the application of abstract ethical principles developed in academic isolation to complex real-world situations, often with little understanding of context, constraint, or consequence. Ivory moralism judges from a position of safety and distance, holding others to standards that the moralist themselves never has to meet, condemning compromises that the moralist never has to make, demanding purity that only privilege can afford. It's the ethics of the editorial, not the ethics of the trenches—principled, consistent, and almost always useless to those actually facing hard choices. Ivory moralism feels righteous to those who practice it but looks like privilege performing virtue to those on the receiving end.

Example: "From her tenured position, she condemned the activists for not being pure enough—pure Ivory Moralism, judging those in the arena from a seat so far up the tower she couldn't even see the fight."

Scientific Moralism

The practice of using the authority and language of science to make moral judgments—to declare what is right and wrong, good and bad, virtuous and sinful—as if empirical findings could settle ethical questions. Scientific moralism mistakes "is" for "ought," treating descriptive claims about how the world works as prescriptive claims about how it should work. It's the evolutionary psychologist who declares that traditional gender roles are "natural" and therefore good; the neuroscientist who claims that because certain brain states correlate with happiness, we now know how to live; the public health researcher who treats statistical correlations as moral imperatives. Scientific moralism borrows science's prestige to launder moral claims, presenting value judgments as if they were empirical findings.

Example: "He cited studies about 'natural human behavior' to justify his prejudice—Scientific Moralism, using the authority of science to dress up moral judgments as if they were facts."
