its broad senses, could be
said to be a human activity
whose chief aims include
turning out people:

wrong,
(2)who know why something
is right or otherwise, and
(3)who would do the right
thing.
Some Theories of Morality
INSTRUMENTALISM – is a
suggestion that right and
wrong are determined with
reference to the
consequences of a certain
belief and its application.
FUNCTIONALISM – suggests
that everything, including
human beings is defined by a
certain inherent function or
purpose.
