What is the mechanism of morality?

There is a saying that "law determines the bottom line and morality determines the bottom line". What does this mean?

This means that although both morality and law are used to restrain human nature, the law sets the bottom line of human nature, and once it is crossed, it will never be forgiven. Morality is mainly to raise the upper limit of human beings. At present, the highest standard of human morality is "sage".

With the moral standard, the problem of "moral function" put forward by the subject naturally arises. So what is the mechanism of morality?

First of all, let's analyze the word "morality" that we often say. The concept of this word is very broad, but it is actually a kind of "virtue" in the final analysis. To sum up, it is also very simple. There are two kinds of morality, one is the morality of doing good without asking for return, and the other is the morality of doing good without asking for return.

Many people may think that these two kinds of morality have advantages and disadvantages, but they are not. The essence of these two morals is the same. To give a simple example, it is wrong to help the elderly, and then everyone is afraid to help the elderly; Save the drowning child against the defendant, and then no one dares to save it. This is a kind of moral behavior that asks for nothing in return under the influence of morality. On the other hand, it is a kind of moral behavior under the moral function, for example, to report a wanted criminal and get a reward. A "saint" is inhuman, we are all human, and we cannot ask everyone to do good without asking for anything in return.

Back to the moral mechanism, we can take "moral kidnapping" as an example. Why is moral kidnapping a deterrent is because everyone has a moral standard in his heart. Just like that joke, if I am shameless, then no one can embarrass me. If I have no morality, then no one can kidnap me.

In addition, morality is actually a kind of bondage. Marriage morality and ethics are the most primitive moral constraints. Why do many people say that the rich have no morals? Do they really have no morals?

In fact, morality is an established thing, and the mechanism of morality is naturally different in different classes. If the class statement makes you feel far away, say the moral gap caused by the environment. For example, if you live in a monogamous country, you will feel that polygamy is immoral, but in a polygamous country, it does not violate their moral standards.

Simply put, morality is like skin. If you fight for breath, people will respect you. If you are shameless, then the moral mechanism can't help you. The counterattack strength of moral action mechanism is a test of a person's skin thickness!
