"What should I do?" is a question we frequently ask. How do we know what is morally right or wrong? On what do we base our values? Can we decide what is morally right using only logic? Are moral principles invented by human beings alone? Philosophers have debated the origin of ethical principles for centuries. Values are important because they define who we are. They are responsible for our being helpful to our neighbors and community or our being burdens on society. They determine if we are religious or atheistic, honest or deceitful, empathetic or insensitive, brave or cowardly or if we conduct ourselves in the gray areas of right and wrong.
