Text Quotes
Theism, however, teaches that not only is there a moral universe but there is an absolute standard by which all moral judgments are measured. God himself-his character of goodness (holiness and love)-is the standard.  (Moral Judgment Quotes) My early research - I’m a social psychologist, and my early research was on how people make moral judgments. When I entered the field in 1987, everybody was looking at moral reasoning - how do kids reason about a moral dilemma? Should a guy steal a drug to save his wife’s life?  (Moral Judgment Quotes) While Israelis do not care too much about Europeans moral judgments, the E.U. is an important market for them, and European sanctions of any kind would be harmful to Israel.  (Moral Judgment Quotes) A man who does not question his own judgment, society, and who flourishes between deceit and bewilderment, fails his moral responsibility as a rational being.  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Let’s just call things what they are. When a man’s love of finery clouds his moral judgment, that is vanity. When he lets a demanding palate make his moral choices, that is gluttony. When he ascribes the divine will to his own whims, that is pride. And when he gets angry at being reminded of animal suffering that his own daily choices might help avoid, that is moral cowardice.  (Moral Judgment Quotes) There is no Christian Gospel if history simply unwinds into a meaningless puddle, if the cosmos simply escapes into a cataclysmic black hole, or if the universe finally dies of exhausted energy. Without belief in a biblical eschatology, there is no Christian hope. Without a sense of perfect moral judgment in the end, the human heart is homeless  (Moral Judgment Quotes) On reflection, moral judgment in the arts appears rather as a tribute to their power to influence emotion and possibly conduct. And reflecting further on what some critics do today, one sees that a good many have merely shifted the ground of their moralism, transferring their impulse of righteousness to politics and social issues  (Moral Judgment Quotes) I’m not saying that atheists can’t act morally or have moral knowledge. But when I ascribe virtue to an atheist, it’s as a theist who sees the atheist as conforming to objective moral values. The atheist, by contrast, has no such basis for morality. And yet all moral judgments require a basis for morality, some standard of right and wrong  (Moral Judgment Quotes) The Resistance is a moral certainty, not a poetic one. The true poet never uses words in order to punish someone. His judgment belongs to a creative order; it is not formulated as a prophetic scripture  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Real morality is not the product of fearing a spanking. But what does fundamentalist hell-belief encourage? It retards any developing moral judgment by freezing moral maturity right at the most primitive, most childish, stage: the fear of retribution-and fundamentalism threatens one hell of a spanking  (Moral Judgment Quotes) State-sanctioned marriage is a civil contract, period. A contract is not a judgment of moral value. It is a legal agreement between two parties that testifies to a meeting of minds between those consenting entities. It is not a religious act or rite and so has nothing to do with Adam and Eve or Steve or even Harvey  (Moral Judgment Quotes) The fundamental question for the United States is how it can cooperate to help meet the basic needs of the people of the hemisphere despite the philosophical disagreements it may have with the nature of particular regimes. It must seek pragmatic ways to help people without necessarily embracing their governments. It should recognize that diplomatic relations are merely practical conveniences and not measures of moral judgment  (Moral Judgment Quotes) One must never fail to pronounce moral judgment  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Historical explanation is not identical with moral judgment  (Moral Judgment Quotes) To denounce moralizing out of hand is to pronounce a moral judgment  (Moral Judgment Quotes) You can’t escape moral judgment through a legal loop hole  (Moral Judgment Quotes) A perverted moral judgment belongs to the dogmatic system  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Suspending moral judgment is not the immorality of the novel; it is its morality  (Moral Judgment Quotes) The greatest moral failing is to condemn something as a moral failing: no vice is worse than being judgmental  (Moral Judgment Quotes) We need to go back to the way it was 30 years ago, when everybody had Grandma and Grandpa, and we were willing to pass moral judgments about right and wrong  (Moral Judgment Quotes) The atheist is cheating whenever he makes a moral judgment, acting as though it has an objective reference, when his philosophy in fact precludes it  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Except among those whose education has been in the minimalist style, it is understood that hasty moral judgments about the past are a form of injustice  (Moral Judgment Quotes) All the particular moral judgments we intuitively make are likely to derive from discarded religious systems, from warped views of sex and bodily functions, or from customs necessary for the survival of the group in social and economic circumstances that now lie in the distant past  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Why does everyone take for granted that we don’t learn to grow arms, but rather, are designed to grow arms? Similarly, we should conclude that in the case of the development of moral systems; there’s a biological endowment which in effect requires us to develop a system of moral judgment and a theory of justice, if you like, that in fact has detailed applicability over an enormous range  (Moral Judgment Quotes) The law that will work is merely the summing up in legislative form of the moral judgment that the community has already reached  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Is cruelty a moral judgment if it is fundamental to forms of life? Who is man to say that the workings of nature, and therefore of the divine plan of which he himself is part, are cruel?  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Those indoctrinated by leftist thinking become largely incapable of making accurate moral judgments  (Moral Judgment Quotes) I like moral judgment to emerge from the reader. We are being sold a very simplistic morality by our leaders at a time when nuance and understanding are at a premium  (Moral Judgment Quotes) I never make moral judgments; I’m not qualified to do so. I am not a censor, a priest, or a politician  (Moral Judgment Quotes) Somehow it must be made plain that the lawyer’s moral judgment is not for hire, that there are occasions when the lawyer... is under a duty to act as a person of independent ethical concern with obligations not only to his client’s interests but also to fairness and justice in the management of affairs  (Moral Judgment Quotes)
