2 types of moral

 The scandal with opening ceremony of Paris Olympic games, made me wonder why some people think that the moral from the grandmother's village applies to the Paris, a city who invented the world libertinage.

Can we demand others to respect our moral code ? Why ? There are universal moral values ?

I think there are 2 types of moral code.

BIG MORAL: don't kill from your own group, don't steal from your group, don't sleep with your neighbor wife, don't have sex with you relatives

This MORAL, you când find it all over the place from tribes to nation state.

The second one is the small moral, related more to customs.

This includes how to dress, how to marry and to whom, how to behave in public, how to eat, what to eat, what is allowed and what is forbidden to drink.

This small moral is related to customs.

Customs evolved according to environment, people from tropics were summary clothes, those from desert covered all their body , the persons from temperate regions alternated by been fully clothes in winter to been fully naked to get vitamin D in summer.

The problem is that universal monotheistic religions mixed these 2 , and not respecting the customs is equivalent to angering the God.

In my opinion more a group is distancing from BIG MORAL, more is intolerant with breaking of customs, of small moral.

It is a moral accounting: I killed the infidels, but I respected the lent, I prayed every day, and my daughter's are cast,modest and well dressed.

Christianity despite imposing the dress code for people for all over the world, I think is more relaxed than Judaism and Islam, because formal respect of the customs was denounced by Jesus.
