Helping any one needs help isn't necessarily a good idea. Some bad guys also need help.

Being honest also isn't necessarily a good choice. What does honest mean? Is luky4ever your really name? if not, does that mean you are dishonest? Sometimes people need to be some kind of dishonest to keep their own privacy.

You are mixing between deferent things.I think you know that luky4ever is not my real name, so I'm not lying, and I never said that this is my name.

About helping the other, I have said "in a good thing".

This is just a discussion, so why to be scared about knowing what is moral & immoral?

Hi lucky4ever,

Maybe you should also add amoral.

1- Helping any one who needs my help is a good thing

I agree; this is a gift to someone.

It becomes immoral when something is expected in return; it becomes a trade or barter instead of a gift.

2-being honest with people

I agree.

But then is it immoral or amoral not to tell them about surprises?

A frozen poisonous snake needs your help and you put it into your pocket when it revives it will bite you…......hehehe so be careful.

A very ugly fatty person hopes you tell him/her true feelings about his/her appearance what will you do?

Since you know the nature of the beast, you would be careful.

Tell them, they already know the answer. It is not like they woke up that day and said "How did I get fat". If you lie, you break trust and that could ruin the friendship.

moral and immoral it depends on each of country. It has not common point of view for all. people can use a child to offer the God and they consider that is moral.
