A moral code is that by which all decent people live by, it is that which is acceptable to society. It can also a principle of wrong or conforming to standards of behaviour and character based on wrongful principles

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Morality, as defined by Socrates, is "how we ought to live". Furthermore it can be explained as: Standards, laws, or rules within a group, or society.

A moral code is a set of standards, laws, or rules that we hold ourselves to, whether they be based on religious affiliation, events that have happened in our life, or just from observing the world around us. Often people derive their moral code from bits and pieces of all of these.

Moral codes do not specifically have to be accepted by society as a whole, merely they have to be accepted by the society with which you associate, or the group you affiliate with.

The best moral codes are constantly being re-evaluated and evolving, just as the best people are constantly growing.
