Each of us is a member of a society in which there is traditionally a certain pattern of behavior that is considered normal. It is enshrined in the concept of universal human values. And most importantly, it does not violate the norms of morality and ethics, does not harm others. However, there are people who do not follow it. On the contrary, they, neglecting moral principles, commit immoral acts that harm other members of society. Such people are called deviants and their behavior is unacceptable.
Turning to Spirituality
Many immoral acts are immoral not only from a human point of view, but also from a religious one. Take, for example, greed. An unhe althy craving for material goods often pushes people to commit terrible acts, with the help of which they manage to satisfy their self-interest.
Pride, which is one ofseven deadly sins in Catholicism, also refers to immoral qualities. Excessive arrogance and disrespect for other people do not make anyone better. Just like adultery. Adultery is a sin, an immoral act, betrayal and humiliation of the one to whom the oath of allegiance was given. The person who committed it is not worthy of trust, respect and good attitude.
Vanity is perceived by many as a socio-psychological property of the individual, which, however, does not paint people. Often they are selfish, arrogant, constantly craving the conviction of their own superiority. It would seem, is it bad to appreciate and love yourself? No it is OK. But only vanity involves exposing all of the above for show, which is usually done through humiliation or neglect of other people.
Famous Examples
Many of us have long ceased to notice the immoral acts of people who are found almost at every turn. A striking example is the use of obscene expressions, observed everywhere. Foul language is speech saturated with indecent expressions. They are also called obscene. Why? Because they are shameless, and therefore violating public morals.
Swearing, which has long become habitual and has lost its ability to shock members of modern society, has practically ceased to fall into the category of immoral acts. Unlike insults, which are a deliberate humiliation of the dignity and honor of a person. And so immoralactions, as insults, are punishable by law. All provisions relating to this are spelled out in article 5.61 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
Contradictory behaviors
If a person commits an immoral act, then it definitely does not fit into the generally accepted moral framework. But it corresponds to certain forms of behavior that are contrary to the norms. There are several of them. These are drug addiction, substance abuse, prostitution, crime, alcoholism and suicide.
It is believed that a person adheres to a particular form of behavior for one of three reasons. The first, the most common in modern society, is inequality on the social ladder.
It's simple. The behavior and upbringing of a person is influenced by his income. The smaller it is, the higher the probability of personality degradation. Many people try to deal with disappointment in their lives with drugs or alcohol. They cannot be blamed for the lack of an inner “core”. Poverty is indeed a psychological ordeal.
External factors
The commission of an immoral act by a person who follows a particular form of behavior may also depend on his environment. It is no secret to anyone that the thoughts and actions of a person are often formed under the influence of family, friends, colleagues, classmates. Unfortunately, those people who grew up surrounded by individuals with immoral behavior and saw nothing but deviant actions begin to consider everything like that.normal.
Environment and society is one of the fundamental reasons that shape human consciousness. Often, the eradication of immoral acts requires the help of sociologists who work not with one guilty individual, but with a whole group of people.
The level of upbringing is also important. Sometimes people do not know about such elementary concepts as "morality" and "morality" because of their ignorance. From generation to generation, rules, norms and traditions should be passed on, and this is the task of parents. But some people simply forget to educate their children and instill in them an awareness of what is possible and what is not.
Animal attitude
It is impossible not to touch upon the immoral acts of people regarding our smaller brothers. Cruelty to animals is not only a crime, but also a sharp moral issue. Individuals who allow themselves to mistreat our smaller brothers are not accepted by normal, modern society. They are condemned and condemned by the rest of the people.
Corruption to animals is a real immoral act. It does not pose a threat to public safety. But nevertheless it is unacceptable and unacceptable from a different, moral point of view.
Real cases
A variety of immoral acts take place in our lives. And you will not wish to become their victims or witnesses even to the enemy.
How many situations are known when sons drank themselves insane and threw their fists at their mothers. Or when someone's beloved pet was subjected to cruel acts by juvenile deviants for the sake of entertainment. Often, many people have witnessed suicide, which also belongs to the category of behavior under consideration. And of course, none of us is immune from betrayal for the personal benefit of a trusted person.
When you realize how often these and similar cases occur, it becomes extremely clear that morality in modern society, unfortunately, is by no means in the first place in the value system.
Bad manners
When talking about moral and immoral acts, it is worth mentioning that the latter also include behavior that many perceive as elementary uncouthness and bad manners.
And examples of this accompany us in everyday life. In public transport, one can often observe a picture of how ill-mannered individuals push people in front in the back, just to leave the salon as quickly as possible. When leaving the premises, many do not hesitate to slam the door right in front of those who follow them, and without even looking back.
But most often, perhaps, there are individuals who openly violate the rules of the hostel. They put garbage on the landing, smoke in the entrance without opening the windows, violate sanitation and hygiene in other ways. These are also immoral acts. Examples surround us everywhere, but we have ceased to notice many of them, because, sadly, they have passed into the category of everyday life.
