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.
In past generations, it was rare to see couples who lived together without the benefit of a legal matrimonial ceremony. In recent years, couples that set up household without marriage are nearly as plentiful as traditional married couples. But, not only are such couples more plentiful, they are also more accepted by other individuals in our society. In earlier society, the laws and morals simply came from the Roman system of law, which was largely based on the Ten Commandments. As society moved into the modern era, that earlier system of laws became more and more eroded.
Moral values also derive from within one’s own self. This is clearly demonstrated in the behavior of older infants and young toddlers. If a child has been forbidden to touch or take a certain object early on, they know enough to slowly look over their shoulder to see if they are being observed before touching said object. There is no need for this behavior to be taught; it is instinctive. Once, however, any form of discipline is applied to modify the child’s behavior, the child now gains the capacity within himself to distinguish his right behavior from his wrong behavior. Now, the child can make correct choices based on his own knowledge. The choices that are made by an individual from childhood to adulthood are between forbidden and acceptable, kind or cruel, generous or selfish. A person may, under any given set of circumstances, decide to do what is forbidden. If this individual possesses moral values, going against them usually produces guilt.
Religion is another source of moral values. Most religions have built-in lists of do’s and don’ts, a set of codes by which its adherents should live. Individuals who are followers of a particular religion will generally make a show of following that religion’s behavioral code. It is interesting to note that these codes may widely vary; a person whose religion provides for polygamy will experience no guilt at having more than one spouse while adherents to other religions feel they must remain monogamous.
Christianity goes beyond all other religions in that it is more than just a system of do’s and don’ts; it is a relationship with the living God through His Son, Jesus Christ. A Christian’s set of moral values go beyond society’s mores and selfish instincts. Christians ideally behave correctly because they love God and want to please Him. This is at once a high calling and a low position. It is a high calling because God has required that all who love Him should keep His commandments; therefore it is an act of obedience. John 14:15 says, "If you love me, you will obey what I command.” It is a low position because we must totally deny our own will to do what pleases the Lord. Christ Jesus as He lived His life on earth is our supreme example; if we pattern our behavior after Him then our lives are most valuable. John 15:10 says, “If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love.
Our Moral Values. We came together because of our moral values: care and responsibility, fairness and equality, freedom and courage, fulfillment in life, opportunity and community, cooperation and trust, honesty and openness. We united behind political principles: equality, equity (if you work for a living, you should earn a living) and government for the people--all the people.
These are traditional American values and principles, what we are proudest of in this country. The Democrats' failure was a failure to put forth our moral vision, celebrate our values and principles, and shout them out loud.
We must immediately convince our leaders to unite behind these values, express our common moral vision and hold the line against the leaders with out vision because it is immoral! leader will call them obstructionists. They must frame themselves as heading in the right direction, going forward not backward, defending the greatest of American ideals and moral principles, working against a radical right agenda that would lead our country to disaster and speaking for more than millions highly moral, patriotic Americans.
If we communicate our values clearly, most people will recognize them as their own, personally more authentic and more deeply American than those put forth by conservatives. At the very least they will see progressives as having deeply held, traditional American principles. This would be a huge step forward from the present state, in which conservatives are seen as having a monopoly on "values" and progressives are framed as the party of "if it feels good, do it," with no higher principles.
Moral values at the national level are idealized family values projected onto the nation. Progressive values are the values of a responsible nurturant family, where parents (if there are two) are equally responsible. Their job is to nurture their children and raise them to be nurturers of others. Nurturance has two aspects: empathy and responsibility--both for yourself and your children. From this, all progressive values follow, both in the family and in politics.
If you empathize with your children, you will want them to have strong protection, fair and equal treatment and fulfillment in life. Fulfillment requires freedom, freedom requires opportunity and opportunity requires prosperity. Since your family lives in, and requires, a community, community building and community service are required. Community requires cooperation, which requires trust, which requires honesty and open communication. Those are the progressive values--in politics as well as family life.
Take protection. In addition to physical protection, there is environmental protection, worker protection and consumer protection, as well as all the "safety nets"--Social Security, Medicare and so on. Equality means full political and social equality, without regard to wealth, race, religion or gender. Openness requires open government and a free, inquiring press. Progressive political ideals are nurturant moral ideals.
On the other hand, the strict-father family model assumes that evil and danger will always lurk in the world, that life is difficult, that there will always be winners and losers and that children are born bad--they want to do what feels good, not what's right--and have to be made good. A strict father is needed to protect and support the family and to teach his kids right from wrong. That can be done in only one way: punishment painful enough that, to avoid it, children will learn the internal discipline necessary to be moral. That discipline can also make them prosperous if they seek their self-interest and no one interferes. Mommy isn't strong enough to protect the family and is too soft-hearted to discipline the children. That's why fathers are necessary.
Apply this, via metaphor, to the nation: We need a strong President who knows right from wrong to defend the nation. Social programs are immoral because they give people things they haven't earned and so make them undisciplined--both dependent and less able to function morally. The prosperous people are the good people. Those who are not prosperous deserve their poverty. Taxes take away the rightful rewards of the prosperous. Wrongdoers should be punished severely. Government should get out of the way of disciplined (hence good) people seeking their self-interest. The President is to be obeyed; since he knows right from wrong, his authority is legitimate and not to be questioned. In foreign policy, he is also the absolute moral authority and so needs no advice from lesser countries.
The so-called "moral issues" are affronts to strict-father morality. Strict-father marriage cannot be gay; it must be between a man and a woman. For a wife to seek an abortion on her own or a daughter to need one is an affront to strict-father control over the behavior of the women in his family. They are not the main moral issues in themselves; rather they are symbolic of the entire strict-father identity as applied to all spheres of life. That's why they are so powerful for conservatives.
Swing voters have both models--in different parts of their lives--and are unsure about which to apply to politics in a particular election. The job of a candidate is to activate his model in the swing voters. Conservatives know this: By talking to their base, they are activating their base model in swing voters. When liberals move to the right, they are shooting themselves in both feet: They alienate their base and they activate the other side's models in the swing voters, thus helping the other side.
we need to understand this. They must hold their ground, be positive and be aware that moving to the right is a double disaster. It will only help the radical right's agenda, break with values that unify us and make it harder to awaken our values in swing voters.
The only way to trump their moral values is with our own more traditional and more patriotic moral values. Proclaim them and live them, and we will find that there are many more than millions of us.
The Truth About "Moral Values.
Moral Values Versus Christian Theology
We hear a lot of talk about moral values, but we hear very little about what those two words actually mean. We hear that they express the fundamentalist Christian positions of anti-abortion, anti-gay rights, and anti-stem cell research, but are these positions actually moral values? Let's ask and answer three questions:
Question One -- What Are Moral Values:
Consider these possible definitions of "moral values:"
Universally accepted, compassionate, loving, Christ-like principles -- Ethical and honorable ways to relate of others -- The practice of encouraging unity, harmony and brotherhood -- The principles and modes of behavior taught by Jesus (as written in the Christian Bible.)
Moral = Webster's Dictionary defines "moral" as: Relating to, dealing with, or capable of making the distinction between right or wrong conduct -- Principles, standards habits with respect to right or wrong in conduct.
Values = Webster's Dictionary defines "values" as: The social principles, goals or standards held or accepted by an individual, a class, a society, etc.
Right = Webster's Dictionary defines "right" as: In accordance with fact, reason, justice, law, and morality; correct in thought and action; Synonyms for right include: correct, honest, ethical, just, true, accurate, precise, suitable, fitting, appropriate, proper.
Wrong = Webster's Dictionary defines "right" as: Contrary to fact or reason, unlawful, crooked, twisted, immoral, improper; Synonyms for wrong include: dishonest, illegal, mistaken , criminal, unethical, sinful, unsuitable, inappropriate improper, incorrect, injurious, harmful, damaging, unjust.
Define Moral Values Define Moral Values ...

It seems fair to boil the definition of moral values down to:

Beliefs and personal opinions about:

1) what is right (honest, ethical, true) conduct and

2) what is wrong (dishonest, false, harmful) conduct

held by individuals and held collectively by socially cohesive groups of individuals.

The Opposite of Moral Values.

It also seems safe to say that moral values would likely exclude things like:

Intentional Deception:°

Lies of omission (deceiving others by omitting the truth)

Peddling half-truths as if they were the whole truth,

Peddling half-lies as if they were the whole truth,

Distorting the truth,


Ignoring or distorting Biblical passages°

Censorship of opposing views°

Using inflammatory rhetoric,°


Egocentric Chauvinism,

Political and sexual repression,

Heterosexual and homosexual hypocrisy,

Religious and racial bigotry,


Oppression of women,

Political tyranny and subjugation,

Disregard for the rights and beliefs of others


Anti-social and Criminal Behavior:

Inciting to riot,

Intimidation,

Harassment,


Invasion of privacy,

Threats,

Assault against persons, reputations, and property,


Secret criminal behavior

Violence,

Vandalism,


Arson, and

Murder.

The above list is a
compilation of known behavior
patterns condoned, supported, and/or
entered into by the forced motherhood leaders.
Morality is a system of principles or rules of conduct to which humans conform. Presently our “wider culture” exemplifies the debasement of rules of conduct with little common agreement as to what rules or principles we should be following.
Beliefs, Values, Morals, Ethics
This is something I picked up at the police academy a decade and a half ago that has been really valuable. I wish I knew who to attribute it to, because it is a good tool.
The concept is: Each individual has a heirarchy of right and wrong. This hierarchy is individual and idiosyncratic and each level depends on the level below it.
BELIEFS are those things you hold to be true.
Given those beliefs your estimation of the relative importance of the "true things" are your VALUES.
MORALS are a generalized feeling, based on your values, of what is 'right' and 'wrong'.
ETHICS arise when you try to codify your morals in concrete terms.
Couple of caveats- these definitions are specific to this system. Ethics and morals are greek and latin translations of each other and are pretty much synonyms in common usage. This also can look kind of fuzzy given the system in four little lines. Bear with me a minute.
So a couple of examples (following does not necessarily reflect the beliefs of the author, me):
I belief that all life is sacred."
However, I value human life more than animal."
It is wrong to take human life and sort of wrong to kill animals."
Thou shalt not kill people, and you should only butcher animals where I can't see it.
A change at the Value level creates a different person:
"I believe that all life is sacred."
"I value all life equally."
"Taking any life for any reason is wrong."
Meat is murder!
The power in this as a tool is to realize in any disagreement where the fundamental difference lies and to understand that you CAN NOT convince anyone who disagrees from a basic level with arguments from a more abstract level. If the issue is a difference of morals (an intuitive judgment of right and wrong), you won't be able to convince them with an ethical (a logical, legalistic, code) argument. If someone doesn't value life at all, it does no good to argue what type of life is most valuable.
If you run into a PETA member who honestly feels that humans and animals are of equal value, you will never convince this person with a moral or ethical argument. You would literally need to shift their values and it will be easiest to do that by clarifying their beliefs:
If all life is sacred, does that mean that nothing should ever be allowed to die?" or "Is this a personal preferance or a natural law, because it seems to me that in nature, every animal dies..."or "If all life is sacred are the natural acts of life, such as a carnivore killing and eating, also sacred?" Lots of people have never thought through their beliefs at this level and sometimes there's a good amount of self-discovery in talking at this level. Will it change 'em? Not always.
You see this problem in some of the most intractable arguments in modern politics. Abortion, from the pro-choice arguments, is largely a moral issue: It is wrong for any person to tell someone else what they can not or must do to or with their own body. It is based on a deeper value of autonomy, possibly tinged with a sense of injustice that women had almost no reproductive rights for much of recorded history and that is based on a deeper belief that controlling someone else's body IS slavery.
The core belief of the pro-life lobby is that the fetus IS a baby. Not a potential life, not a piece of tissue, but a baby. From that belief the next step (value) is simple, weighing the life of a child over a change in the woman's life-style. Balancing the murder of an innocent baby against the ease and freedom of being childless.
The distinction I find it useful to make between morals and ethics is that morals are the rules of behavior toward G-d while ethics are the rules of behavior toward other human beings. Some behaviors fall into both categories, of course.
This only works inside my head, though, as most people don't think about morals and ethics this way.
As I think about the definition of moral belief, I struggle a bit.
Although we all have a sense of what is or isn't "moral", I think there are many variations on that theme, depending on the person.
As far as "beliefs"? Wow! I'll bet you could line up ten people, ask them about the same basic issue and end up with ten different ideas on what they believe to be truth.
I suppose a good place for the definition of moral belief is to begin with the dictionary.
HyperDictionary.com says moral is: "concerned with principles of right and wrong or conforming to standards of behavior and character based on those principles", also, "arising from the sense of right and wrong".
Belief is described as: "a vague idea in which some confidence is placed".
Definition of Moral Belief
Getting Beyond the Dictionary
So, your moral beliefs are your vague ideas on which you base your principles of right and wrong.
Maybe the dictionary wasn't the best place to go on this
issue.
I never really thought a dictionary definition of your moral beliefs would help, anyway. I look at this in more of a spirituality sense - striving for your own spiritual enlightenment.
It's a personal issue where you and I both must be able to, based on our own sense of right and wrong, live by a moral code that allows for inner peace, acceptance, and a sense of calm.
Definition of Moral Belief
Develop Beliefs That Are Truly Yours
As you can see from my belief system article, many of your beliefs aren't actually yours. Be sure that whatever you believe to be moral is really something you came up with as opposed to just accepting the views of those around you.
Your moral beliefs are essentially what your character is built upon.
They can't be vague ideas of what you think may be right or wrong. Morally speaking, you need to have a firm grasp here.
Definition of Moral Belief
Add Value to Others
Your moral belief system is what allows you to interact with others. Depending on your views on the subject, this is what will either allow you to be a benefit to those around you or a hindrance.
If you feel it's morally right to lie, cheat, and steal from others, what are you contributing? What legacy are you leaving behind? What value are you adding?
If your definition of moral belief is one where you live a life of honesty and trustworthiness, now we see a different picture open up.
When you treat others with dignity and know how to contribute valuable information and emotions, you're a person that's uplifting to be around. You're a person adding value to life.
You're getting closer to spiritual enlightenment.
Definition of Moral Belief
Becoming Spiritually Wealthy
Although everyone may have varying degrees of what is correct and acceptable in regards to moral beliefs, if you're seeking inner peace and abundance, there's isn't much wiggle room.
You can't feel it's morally right to hurt others and expect abundance in return.
This is the spiritual aspect I mentioned earlier. Sure, there's examples of people who amass great wealth by hurting, murdering, or cheating others. Spiritually, though, you will never convince me that this person ever reaches peace, or enlightenment.
When you're a person of honor, and morally wealthy, you may not amass as much physical wealth as the morally bankrupt person, but, you'll find that you attract exactly enough abundance to fill you up emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
Definition of Moral Belief
Honor & Spiritual Enlightenment
When your definition of moral belief is aligned with giving, rather than receiving, it's amazing what you end up receiving.
Strive to be a person of character. Strive to achieve your own definition of moral belief that's a bedrock of honor and dignity.
Become spiritually wealthy. Achieve spiritual enlightenment.
Change your life,

1. Leadership, Values and Attitudes
Regardless about what you think about the future, change is inevitable. For a leader to harness the power of change, he must empower and engage his employees. Superior organizational performance is possible only by understanding personal values, attitudes, and motives.
The transformational leader is defined as one who motivates followers to do more than they originally expected to do. For example, studies have found significant and positive relationships between transformational leadership and the amount of effort followers are willing to exert, job performance, and effectiveness.
Values help determine the attitudes leaders have about themselves and about their followers. These attitudes also bias evaluations – either positive or negative – about people, events or things. Values and attitudes form the very core of personality as they influence the choices people make, the appeals they respond to and the way they invest their time and energy.
Values – a means and an end
Values may affect leaders and leadership in a number of ways. One way to think about values is in terms of means and ends values. As early as 1973, Milton Rokeach defined a value as an enduring belief that a particular mean or end is more socially or individually preferable than another end or mean. After values are developed they act as filters through which deliberation is reduced and choices are made.
Values do not in and of themselves determine what is good or what is bad but provide a standard for individuals to decide what is better or best for him or her. There are two types of values: means and ends. End values are beliefs about the kinds of goals or outcomes that are worth trying to pursue. End values refer to the future, a purpose, which can either be social or individual in focus. World peace and national security are end values. Means values are beliefs about the types of behaviors that are appropriate for reaching goals. Mean values shape the decisions we make whether we go to war or protect our borders. Mean values can also be focused on the greater good (social) or personal (self-preservation).
Each person has a unique combination of means and end values that are used constantly to sort experiences and make future choices. These combinations cluster into what we call a value system. The priority we place on these values is developed with time and experience. This doesn’t mean our decisions get easier or better. It just means we can go along with the results because with time and experience choices seem more right or more wrong.
One of the implications of change management is that leaders need to pay close attention to the ends and the means values of employees if a change is to be effective. Weak value system congruence between an organization and its employees could result in lost productivity and turnover.
