oral values are the standards of good and evil, which govern an

individual’s behaviour and choices. Individual’s morals may

derive from society and government, religion, or self. When

moral values derive from society and government they, of

necessity, may change as the laws and morals of the society

change. An example of the impact of changing laws on moral

values may be seen in the case of marriage vs. “living together.”

t the general level, there is a difference between moral and

natural goods. Moral goods are those that have to do with

the conduct of persons, usually leading to praise or blame.

person" might involve a different sense of "good" than the

one used in the sentence "Wow, that was some good food".
