How can you differentiate 'Right' 'Wrong?

Answer 1

It depends if you're referring to the accuracy of a statement, or to a moral question. For example:

1+1=2 - is 'right'. 1+1=3 - is 'wrong'.

But if you're asking about morality, it's more complicated.

We have subjective feelings that tell us what is 'right' and what is 'wrong'. You might think your country's Immigration policy is 'wrong', but your electorate may be 'right' wing and feel that it's 'wrong' for asylum seekers to have 'rights'. The fact is, the only real variable is how people feel about it, and who gets imprisoned or deported, or voted out of office.. None of which is objectively 'right' or 'wrong', it just feels one way or the other depending on where you stand.

So basically, figure out if your problem is 'objective', or 'subjective'. If it's objective then 'right' and 'wrong' do apply.

If you're asking whether it's 'wrong' to kill your wife/friend/bus driver/local police constable, then the only 'right' thing to do is be careful and make sure you get all the details 'right', make sure you don't do it 'wrong' by getting caught. If you get away with it, therefore you are the only person wondering whether it's 'right' or 'wrong', which makes it your 'right' to decide!
