Once upon a time I suppose people got their ethics from church. But that seems vanishing rare today.
Anyway...point is...nobody has their own 'unique' sense of ethics. It is all group think and it is all arbitrary.
The only way 2 people can have a discussion or a debate about ethics is if they happen to agree on the ultimate goal of ethics (say...going to heaven or something)
Those are the sorts of discussions that are amazingly rare...even on a political forum
why then, did all ancient religions on earth, independently of each other, come up with the same moral code as the foundation of their beliefs? The golden rule was ubiquitous on the planet long before cultures had any contact with each other
