The Universal Moral Code


The Universal Moral Code is a list of fundamental moral principles that
can be found throughout the world. It was created by Dr. Kent M. Keith
in 2003 while writing a book on morality and ethics. The code incorporates
basic, universal ideas about how we should live and how we should treat
each other. Living these principles can provide each of us with the meaning
that comes from living our values and doing what's right.

The code is divided into two complementary sets of statements. The first set
consists of negative statements about not doing harm, while the second set
consists of positive statements about doing good.
