As I read what you said it sounds like I was dead on in what I was getting
out of the website. Morality as "conditioning" denies the basis of right and
wrong. It become no more than growing one's hair long in the 60s and 70s and
cutting it off today to fit into the youth culture of the day.
Morality is about right and wrong. It is far more than conditioning to not
harm children, it is moral to not harm them. Right and wrong are not
"conventions" they are fairly clear to any who would stop and think. Theft,
OK except for silly "conditioning"? Rape, OK except for "conditioning"?
Killing for the thrill of it, OK except for "conditioning"? NO!, NO!, and
again NO! Those things are morally wrong.
Social convention and in large part social conditioning is about growing a
beard or not, how to wear your hair, your dress or pants, your whatever or
holding the door for someone who doesn't have his/her arms full and needs
help.
Namaste,
Joe
