"Natural Moralities" (book)

"Natural Moralities" by Philip S. Phan examines how human moral values and ethical principles often arise from our innate human nature and shared experiences, rather than solely from religious or cultural traditions. The book explores how our natural inclinations—such as empathy, fairness, and community—the foundation of many moral systems, shape our understanding of right and wrong. Phan argues that recognizing these natural moralities can foster more inclusive and universal approaches to ethics, emphasizing common human dignity across diverse cultural and religious contexts. The work bridges theology, philosophy, and social thought to highlight the inherent moral capacities of humanity.
