Standards 101

If we breach legal standards then that simply means that we got caught.

If we breach ethical standards then we may face peer and societal disapproval.

But breaching moral standards can have different effects on different people; they may feel uncomfortable, remorse or depressed so long as the moral standards are their own.

Breaching someone else’s moral standards generally has lesser impact, especially if one has no connection to the person with the moral standards.

A socio-path is either someone with no moral standards or a lawyer that equates ethical or moral standards to legal standards.

Anyone that attempts to assert that their own moral standards are actually ethical standards is an absolute bore that should be ignored.

Extremists go one step further and make their own moral standards the legal standards.
