The Choice Between Morality and Goodness

By Daphne Yakinthou

Some of us, maybe the vast majority of people, regardless of our religious practices or philosophical outlook on life, consider the words morality and goodness as synonyms, signifying the same basic concept. However, that’s a wholly inaccurate assessment of the two words that, in a sense, are more contradictory to one another than what one would expect.

The choice between morality and goodness

Some of us, maybe the vast majority of people, regardless of our religious practices or philosophical outlook on life, consider the words morality and goodness as synonyms, signifying the same basic concept. However, that’s a wholly inaccurate assessment of the two words that, in a sense, are more contradictory to one another than what one would expect.

Morality is, basically, a set of rules separating right from wrong, like a useful pair of glasses assisting a person with poor eyesight to function in his or her everyday life.
