forum for week of 12 September

I think beliefs/ethics are rather personal/societal matters than something that can be defined as right or wrong by outsiders. There has to be a reason for a person/society to believe why certain things are right or wrong, and that depends on the experiences that person/society has. However not every single person/society has the same experience as others do.For example, when some people in former British colonies think the British are the meanest people in the world, people in Britain in contrast think they are proud of themselves since Britain conquered so many places.Therefore we cannot judge others's belief or culture based on what our own standards are.
