Morality is knowing what is right and wrong and doing what is right. It can also mean a code of conduct for good behavior or doing thing in the right and proper way. The rate at with morals is decaying is very alarming, in today's society we can hardly know what is right or wrong. Virginity that suppose to be a thing of pride is now a thing of shame when you mention it in some places, drinking of alcohol that suppose to be a thing of shame is now a thing people boast of, having multiple sexual partner is a thing of joy in our society today when it should not. Many things have caused the decay in morality and I will try to list some of them
1) Civilization have played a very bug factor in decay of morals : the kind off exposure youth and children are expose to today is too much and its playing a bad influence to our society. When they watch indecent movies, they will want to practice what is done in the movie or when they watch music videos they will want to where the same thing they are wearing. Civilization have also cause decays in other ways like bringing up facts on why not to beat your child or claiming human rights when kids are suppose to be corrected with flogging.
2) Morality is also decaying because of the money been generated from indecency. When a cloth is been worn by a celebrity (no matter how bad it is) all cloth industries will want to produce such cloths so as to get more money. Money also promote indecency (which reduce morals) by promoting adverts and film that could corrupt the society.
3) Parents too have a part in the decay of morals because some parents don't correct there children or some parent don't even have the time to correct there wards.
4) False Doctrine: when you don't follow godly doctrine, you will end up following worldly or false doctrine and it will reduce your morality.
5) Freedom: morals is been decayed in today's world because of too much ffreedom. When you give someone too much freedom he/she might end HP not knowing what is right or not.
There are other things that have cause decay in our society today legal system, technology among other things.
I hope I have answered your question.
