Morality

Are we born with a sense of morality??? I've pondered that question for some time now. How come some people seem to operate with a moral compass while others are left directionless?? Why are some people conscious of living their lives within an ethical framework while others do whatever makes them happy, regardlesss of how their actions impact those around them? Is this a product of our modern day culture where our society is self-centered, power hungry, materialistic and focused on bigger and better things?

How can 2 people that grow up in the same household behave so differently when the same morals and values are impressed upon them from early on??? These individuals are taught to treat others with respect, appreciate the things that you are given, tell the truth and to do what is "right". Are we taught to be moral people but choose to live our lives contrary to this or is it that some people are born with a greater sense of morality?

Have you ever wondered about this?? I'm still trying to figure out the answer to this question. If anyone has an answer, I'm willing to entertain your thoughts. How does one explain the differences in human behavior as it relates to morality?? Can it be tied in to the argument of nature versus nurture??? Is there really an "answer" to this question??
