Hi Margie, Then change my term from morality to peaceality or whatever that can ensure peace. I am also opposed to manmade standards of morality, which, like you say lead to endless arguments and struggles. In order to maintain peace, you need something to go by. I have trouble accepting 'just it'. Or Buddha nature, which not everybody follows. You can say everybody has Buddha nature, but when it comes to performance, the opposite is frequently true. Regards, Anthony

Look into history, and ask yourself, how does morality contribute to peace? Isn't the result exactly the opposite? Morality creates turmoil because then people start arguing about which morality should be the "rule". Wars have been fought over this, lots of them. I really think it's an important question for you. How does morality contribute to peace?
