Answer 1

Answer:

While they are sometimes used interchangeably, they are different: ethics refer to rules provided by an external source, e.g., codes of conduct in workplaces or principles in religions. Morals refer to an individual's own principles regarding right and wrong. ... The legal duty involves a corresponding right.

Hi! :)

I am not exactly sure what you mean by what moral and ethical laws you are talking about, but Ill try my best to break it down. Morals are your (or an individual person) own guiding inner compass on right and wrong. In 6th grade, you know stealing is wrong, so you are not going to do it. That is an example of your morals. That is also an example of a moral law, stealing is illegal. These are things that are guidlines for the whole community. Someone doesn't need to be moral to be ethical. There may be someone who has no moral compass but follows ethics to be in good standing with society. On the other hand, someone can violate ethics all the time because they believe something is morally good. Ethical behavior includes honesty, integrity, fairness and a variety of other positive traits. Those who have others' interests in mind when they make decisions are displaying ethical behavior. In the workplace, there might be a standard for ethics set throughout the company.The examples for ethical but illegal are generally lawmakers deciding to impose their own moral judgments in the law to prohibit some act when there is actually no identifiable public good being diminished by that act. That is the best I can explain, message me if you need something else!
