This is a debate of morals and morality: the main questions:

Has there been a major decline in the morality of society?
Who (what) establishes morals?
Does (or should) society have a standardized code of morals?
Are morals important, or does law eliminate the need for morality?

1. I do believe their has been a decline in morality in society. For example children now days I feel are more disrespectful towards adults.

2. Well many factors establish what act is considered moral. Culture and religion is usually what establishes to some extent of what acts are considered moral.

3. Well I am not too sure about that. Even if we do have standardized code of moral, would people truly follow them? I highly doubt this claim you put forward would actually work. =/

4. In law, morality is not very important unless if there is a legislation or a case for the public's interest. Morals are important because that is what others judge an individual on.
