Regarding? This question is way to broad to answer without writing a thesis.
Most of them had slaves and were dependent on them. Incorrect. Only 3 of the 7 founding fathers were slave owners. There were 7 founding fathers of the US Constitution: Franklin, Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Jay, Madison, and Hamilton. 3 were slave owners (Washington, Jefferson, and Madison all from Virginia). 3 were not (Adams, Jay, and Hamilton) In fact they were adamantly against slavery. Franklin became an abolitionist after the Constitutional Convention in 1785 and freed both his slaves. The founding fathers from Virgina (later a confederate state) were pro-slavery. The others from New York or Massachusettes were against slavery. This initial philosophical contradiction during the founding of the US wasn't resolved until 80 years later during the US Civil War.
Probably not. But even if he did, if it isn't in the Constitution it isn't part of our law.Answer:Well... not that government couldn't work; but that government couldn't work PROPERLY!"It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible." G.W.Yet, at the same time... He also said:"The government of the United States is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion." G.W.BE CAREFUL... there is a difference! It's an understanding that is easily lost on people."Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle." G.W.Great pains were taken by the founding fathers to "keep government out of religion" -- but NOT "religion out of government."While they sought NOT to endorse any particular national religion -- they DID seek to include moral, religious principles within the Constitution."Our Constitution was made ONLY for a moral and religious people. It is WHOLLY INADEQUATE to the government of any other." (John Adams)

Moral failing means doing something morally incorrect or a moral flaw.
There was a degree of influence from the philosophical and moral writings of Cicero on the writers of the US constitution. However, the real inspiration for their work were the ideas of the French philosopher Montesquieu who produced his own interpretation of the ancient Greek scholar Polybius of the constitution of the Roman Republic.
To the founding fathers, virtue meant embodying qualities such as integrity, honesty, and civic responsibility in both public and private life. They believed that a virtuous citizenry was essential for the success of the new republic, as it would ensure a government based on moral principles and the common good. Virtue was seen as crucial for maintaining individual freedom and self-governance in society.
He wrote the Declaration of Independence which, in stirring and inspiring language, laid the philosphical basis and moral argument for everything which has gone since.Michael Montagne

The moral lesson of Cinderella is that good intentions always win. Despite the challenges that may come along the way, people with good intentions usually emerge victorious.
It depends on society. Usually, the law, the Constitution, has society's rules and social moral on it.
I think the appropriate quote is, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions" Don't compromise your moral code to achieve a "greater" good.
The US Constitution is an amoral document, meaning that it is neither moral or immoral. The US Constitution is simply a governmental charter which gives people the right to constitute their own government. Whether this government does moral actions or immoral actions is entirely contingent on the people who behave by right of that charter. Morality and ethics are determined by an entirely distinct moral process (be it religious exegesis or secular moral systems) than anything in the US Constitution.
There are actions that a company or person can partake in that would be considered a moral hazard by society in general. This would be actions such as offering or entering in to a contract under ill intentions of not actually honoring the contract.
While the Pardoner may have questionable motives for telling his story, such as greed or manipulation, it doesn't necessarily detract from the moral truth of the story itself. The moral lesson can still be valid and impactful regardless of the character's intentions.
Some non-moral features that are important in making moral judgments include consequences of actions, intentions behind actions, and the context in which actions occur. These factors can influence the ethical implications of a decision or behavior.
Consequentialism is a moral theory that judges the rightness or wrongness of actions based on their outcomes or consequences. In other words, the moral value of an action is determined by the results it produces, rather than its inherent nature or the intentions behind it.
""We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion... Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."" ""The church is the moral compass of society."" ""We have no constitution which functions in the absence of a moral people
