Abstract

All the time,knowledge about morality is the vaguest and most chaotic issue in the field of social science.It is very common to take standard system,doctrine,conventions,concepts,and ways of behavior as morality.Such chaotic knowledge does not only make moral reasoning contrary to basic logical rules,but also results in ossified construction of morality.To solve these problems,the boundary between morality and other associated social ideology must be accurately recognized,stripping morality from politics and religion,clarifying the relation between ethics,law,and morality as well as the issue of morality's public domain,and specifying the positive values of morality.The nature of morality based on positive values can be analyzed out of interpersonal rule,summed up from social practices of human being,and inferred through analogy and induction.It has considerably significant practical guiding function.
