The Definitive on Morality

So, I dig Jesus. I grew up with my interpretation of Jesus within me - filling me with a Spirit that matters to me.

As a woman of spirit, who values multiple forms of spirituality (and their multiple similarities), I contemplate a lot of stuff today. I pose myself some questions that have been a lifetime in the making.

Maybe you can help with the answers.

The Concept of Morality

On the concept of morality, my questions are many.

What is right and what is wrong? Are their any monsters among us? Do we become a monster if we define someone else as one? Who - currently and historically - defines right and wrong?

Do I judge myself by my own, possibly misguided, definitions of right and wrong? Is the concept of right and wrong a judgement in and of itself? Is morality socially and personally necessary?

What happens if I don't think about this and where do I turn for answers?

Those With the Answers

So who or what do I turn to for the answers? I'm unsure where to go.

As a person who learned about Christianity, do I turn to Jesus? Or, God? Or, God listening to Jesus? Or, humans who interpret Jesus' way of being and thinking and example? Do I turn to what was or is my faith?

As one who values Spirituality at large, with there many similarities, do I turn to other religions or forms of Spirit? To the Spiritual Leaders around the world? Do I turn to the Sages? The Monks? The Shamans? The Buddha? The Chief? The Godesses and the Gods? The divine within each of Us? The divinity found in our love for Each Other?

As a person who values our environment, do I look outside of myself and turn to the Trees? The singing Bird? The intelligent Whale? The hungry Tiger? My soulful Dog? The cells within Me and the Universe and Multiverses about? Do I turn to the entire living and inanimate World which reminds me to look outside of Myself and my constant questions?

As one who values humanity and the thinking brain, do I turn to Myself and My Individual Perspective and Personal Experience? To the Minds of Those I love and respect? To my perfect and imperfect Mother, Father, Sister, Husband, and extended Family? To the Philosophers? Writers? Historians? Scientists? Poets? Artists? Teachers? Mother's and Fathers? Elders? Youth? Those living with challenges? The ill? The loving Friend? The Misunderstood? The Lost? The Wise? Do I turn to all Others who are beautifully alive, whether they wonder these things or not? To the Other person who I do not understand?

Questions Remain

I have more.

Is it even possible for any of us to pose ourselves the question of morality - of right and wrong - considering all entities, ways of being, and forms of thought to which we can turn? Can any human actually do that? I don't know.

My most present question is, what happens to me if I don't ask what is right and what is wrong? What happens to society?

The Answer

I don't know. You All know better or more about right and wrong.

On second thought, maybe none of us do.
