Abstract

The author bring into focus, through philosophic arguments, the subject of morals not necessarily connected with religion. Providing examples of own religious commandments, demonstrates that the working out of coherent, consistent and applicable ethical system don’t need to be entailed to any religion, offering examples of moral codes produced by atheistic philosophers. He concluded asserting that all moral decision must be based in three elements: knowledge, feeling and, above all, total freedom and exemption of making choices.
