    • Morality … is the differentiation of intentions, decisions, and actions between those that are "good" (or right) and those that are "bad" (or wrong).Morality can be a body of standards or principles derived from a code of conduct from a particular philosophy, religion, culture, etc., or it can derive from a standard that a person believes should be universal. … < P> … Various expressions of this fundamental moral rule are to be found in tenets of most religions and creeds through the ages, testifying to its universal applicability." Walter Terence Stace argued that the Golden Rule is much more than simply an ethical code. He posits that it "express [es] the essence of a universal morality." The rationale for this distinction occupies much of his book The Concept of Morals (1937). </ref>
