    Should the Natural Law of Ethics be considered as the basis of morality?


    Why or why not? Explain your answer.

    The majority of individuals are not aware of the nature of natural law.
    They believe that science investigates the laws of nature and that these laws
    have no bearing on people, society, politics, or individual’s behavior.

    According to the ethics and philosophy notion known as "natural law,"


    human beings have inherent values that guide their thoughts and behavior.
    According to natural law, people naturally possess these concepts of good
    and wrong; they were not developed by society or legal authorities. (THE
    INVESTOPEDIA TEAM, 2022)

    For me, we should not use the law of natural ethics as a basis to
    judge or criticize the people we interact with on a daily basis. Each person
    does not have the same behaviors, skills, or abilities. We are human,
    imperfect and make mistakes, but we never lose being good to our fellow
    man, even in small things.
