1. When do we say then that an act is moral or non-moral?

Moral act is one’s own act and must spring from one’s own will. The action tends
by its exceptionally nature since it is one’s own conviction to do the activity of
sacrificing their claim short-term interests for the good thing about society. The
object, or the doing, must be equitably good in order to be considered as morally
great. Simultaneously, it involves taking the vital steps to convert the intent to do
the right thing into reality. This incorporates moral possession, ethical efficacy,
and ethical courage. Meanwhile, non-moral is the inverse, those areas of interest
where moral categories cannot be applied. An amoral action is one performed by
somebody who isn't ethically mindful, that's doesn't have any concepts or
understanding of right and wrong. Non-moral activity comes about to shameless
activities where ethical categories do apply and of are such a kind as to be evil,
sinful, or off-base agreeing to a few code or hypothesis of morals at that point can
be characterized as a violation of a rule or code of ethics.

2. Why is it that only human being can be ethical?


Since only human beings are able to act ethically because we have intellect and
will. Ethical behavior came around in advancement not since it is versatile in
itself but as an essential result of man's famous mental capacities, which are a
property specifically advanced by characteristic choice. People have an ethical
sense because their natural cosmetics decides the presence of three vital
conditions for moral behavior: (i) the capacity to expect the results of one's
possess activities; (ii) the capacity to create esteem judgments; and (iii) the
capacity to select between elective courses of activity.

3. Was there ever a time that you compromised your moral convictions? How did you
feel about it?
Definitely I had, whenever I see poor people asking for money or food I honestly
wanted to give even in just small amount however, I always ended up doubting of
giving or not because I am too shy to hand something to someone. After that I
ended up staring at them going away and feeling thrown. It just feels so heavy
compromise our moral convictions when we already know what we should have
don and yet we haven’t
