Human moralities are societal constructs agreed to by a group
not permanent and not laws of nature.
one of the difficulties of the modern world is developing a worthy
moral/ethical code for new capabilities such as genetics where stuff
we are able to do now had no frame of reference in such sources of
modern moralities as say a middle eastern village of two thousand
years ago.
they couldnt concieve it to determine it.
even ethics and moralities evolve.
what can get someone sent to prison for life in America today
was normal and acceptable in ancient greece birthplace of democracy.
