Morality

Accept my Love and Blessings. What is morality in the hands of a philosopher? A good deal depends on the definition of morality especially in the hands of a philosopher. If he looks upon morality as only a convenience imposed by common consent by the people on themselves, the philosopher would presumably attach very little importance to moral issues arising in that connection.

If, on the other hand, his views lead him to look upon morality as something more than a convenience of life, as having a basis more fundamental and rooted in eternal verities, then naturally the importance of morality to him would be very great. It is purely a question of definition and attitude. My Love and Blessings to all.
