This discussion explores the differences and connections between what is lawful and what is ethically right. Laws are rules created by governments to maintain order, protect rights, and regulate behavior, while morality reflects personal or societal ideas about what is good, just, or fair.
Sometimes, laws align with moral values, but conflicts can arise when a law allows something considered unethical, or when moral convictions push people to challenge existing laws.
This discussion examines how individuals and societies navigate these tensions and make decisions when legality and morality don’t fully agree.


Look for our placard that says “CIVIC DISCUSSION MEETUP” near the tables by Eddie V’s and the Post Office inside the Prudential Center. If the weather is nice, we might be in the courtyard instead. If you have trouble finding us, feel free to text or call 603-852-0286.
