What is right and wrong?

So, what is right and what is wrong? You may disagree with my point because it is highly debatable. But this book allows me to express my views without any debate. I think right and wrong are created for moral values. If there was nothing right and wrong, people would become barbarians with no construct.






People start to fight, kill and do more harm if there is no construct as such as “Right and wrong”. But I wonder how far has this gone? Although it has created stability in the planet earth, I think some people in power have taken it to the extremes.


A few decades back, colour discrimination was a huge issue. People were considered to be untouchables. In India and some eastern regions, the division between religion and castes has created multiple chaos. People have lost lives due to this discrimination. And Why?


Some people thought it was right! There is nothing wrong or right. It’s all a human construct. When the mass majority is done everything is “right”. But when few do it then it is quoted as “wrong”. Recently in Sri Lanka when the mass majority stood against the government it was named “Protest by citizens” a few decades back people who where protested for the same reason were named “Terrorists”.






At this stage, I would remind you that what we call the “Majority” is nothing but people. In the name of god, there are riots happening everynow and then. I wonder if god has created these discriminations. If ever god exists in a human form, I wish him/her to visit earth.


So, there is nothing right/wrong just perspectives.
