Reasons for Lack of Ethics in Contemporary Context

Abstract

In the current era, there's a looming sense of moral decay amidst the backdrop of widespread fatal diseases, yet many are immersed in superficial pursuits. When signs of this moral decline emerge, people often lament, questioning what has become of our time—labeling it inhuman, brutal, even demonic. However, such dialogue merely exposes ignorance, as disease thrives on it. When millions are affected by a clear-cut illness with well-established treatments, yet ignorance persists, it's an erroneous assertion. Consequently, sporadic incidents of nefarious activities occur, causing momentary uproar, only to be followed by adherence to societal norms or religious leaders. There's a lack of proactive effort to address the root cause, perpetuating societal ethical deficits. A morally upright society is characterized by the conduct and values of its populace—embracing moderation, respect for human rights, and safeguarding of life and property. Such a foundation enables societal progress to flourish.
