There are no right or wrong answers in Ethics

What I am trying to prove is that there are no concrete wrong or right answers when it comes to ethics as a whole. As mentioned in my first argument, ethics is a set of moral principles that governs a persons or groups behavior. It has to be kept in mind that what is the ethical values of one person or group of people is not the same set of ethical values of another person or group of people. What you are trying to prove is that when it comes to ethical dilemmas there are definite right or wrong answers and you use the example of crime to start off. You mention that murder is ethically wrong, which I believe that almost everyone will agree on, but where the fault lies, in trying to prove your point not on the actual matter itself, is when you say that murder is wrong under ANY circumstance and that ALL people feel the same way. There are many people that will agree with you when you say that ending someones life is wrong no matter the circumstance but there are just as many people who will strongly and passionately refute that viewpoint; which is why there is such a controversial debate surrounding the ethical being of the death penalty. If there was a way to prove that either side was right or wrong the conflict wouldn't exist but theres isn't which is why the conflict does exist and is such a predominant issue among people. Take the case in Bangkok of a man who brutally raped and killed an innocent defenseless six year old girl, he has also confessed to the murder of ten other children. The family's of these children, these poor innocent children that had their innocence and then lives taken away by a monster, would want nothing more than for justice to be served and for people in a situation of that sort and for many people on the outside looking in justice and no greater feeling would be to hear that someone capable of that pure evil, who if let live has the ability and desire within him to commit such a crime again, has been sentenced to the death penalty. There are even many people who argue that capital punishment is an unjust punishment for such heinous criminals because the death is so instantaneous and believe that individuals of these sort deserve to be brutally tortured to their death so that they to feel terror and pain which they have caused to others. To people with these strong beliefs this is what is ethically right yet on the contrary there are still people, as yourself, who believe that even such disturbed criminals do not deserve to have their lives taken away by other humans. Each side of the situation considers there side to be ethically and morally right while considering the opposing side ethically wrong, and what I am proving lies here. Each side believes that their views are what it ethically right because as I am greatly stressing it is all based on a matter of opinion and there is no unbiased ethical hierarchy to decide which side is more valid than the other. Which brings me to my next point, you mention that the bible is, as you stated, "The sole book that shows one and teaches what is to be done and not to be done;" There are many fallacies within that statement. To say that the bible is the book of ethical accuracy is completely inaccurate and unrealistic. You have to take into consideration that the bible is a series of sacred scriptures for the Christian faith and Christianity is not the only religion that exists. All religions have their own views, practices, beliefs, and ideas as to what is ethically and morally right or wrong. Religions clash and disagree on numerous things; what is acceptable or excepted to one religion could be and is many times unfathomable to another. The reason that so many religions exist is because, just as when it comes to ethics, there is no way of proving that one is more valid than the other because it is a matter of beliefs, principles, and of course opinions. In your argument you also state, "People say they steal for a "good cause" , but tell me what is a "good cause". There is no such thing as stealing for a good reason" when you state this you are openly choosing a side on which you believe that stealing is wrong no matter the circumstance and I am not here to refute your position on the ethical matter but to prove that just as you believe that many people believe otherwise. That beloved story of Robin Hood is in fact so beloved because it is a story of man who took from the excessive and gave to the needy; because many people believe, in opposition to your belief, that when attached to a good cause the moral ramifications of a bad action change. The same ties in with your argument about murder but what it ultimately proves is that what is ethically right to one is not ethically right to another, it is all a matter of opinion, proving there are no right or wrong answers in Ethics. And as far as the argument involving the alcohol I don't necessarily believe that that is matter of ethics but more of a matter of ignorant decision making.
