The concept of ethics is useless without religious values
bidita:
I think ethics is a relative issue. It depends on how people of a certain area judge the criteria of ethics. So, it varies from place to place and culture to culture. But there should be bench mark as Shibli Sir mentioned of ethics. Otherwise people will change the criteria of ethics from generation to generation. To me, ethics should be constant, it should NOT be changed from culture to culture.
For example: when i went to the USA, i saw almost all girls wearing skirts on formal occasion, it is very much ethical but in our subcontinent, wearing shirts and mini skirts on formal occasions indecent....the same case is applicable for a girl in shaking hands with a boy....On the other hand, the western people view that we, the girls, are indecent when we wear SHARI showing our belly...Further more, in our subcontinent, corruption is seen almost everywhere especially the politicians, ministers, MPS, the judiciary people and the police. But in western countries, they do corruption in bigger shape like the USA attacked Iraq for OIL. Also, having children before marriage is quite ethical in those countries whereas living together is completely unethical in our culture.......
My point is if it continues, people of different ages will keep on changing the norms of ethics on which i disagree. So, there should be certain rules for ethics for all people of the world. It cannot be made, i know but there should be.........here lies the importance of religious scriptures that give us certain rules and regulations of ethics...
shibli:
The concept of hereafter is justified when a person in Germany has got only 15 years imprisonment for having the allegation of 1000 rapes against him recently.......
shibli:
"Too much materialistic people can not justify their sense of ethics.They just only run after their own profit." Shamsi Ara Huda

Strongly agree with Bacon on this point. let me share a relevant experience with one of our students. He claims to be a Nastik, mocks religious values by creating his Facebook Id as Alhajj xyz . I wonder at the moral standard of these type of students as they are the future leaders of Bangladesh.
shibli:
Some people are expert at buttering up their bosses. It has been a common practice in most organizations In Bangladesh. Appreciating your boss for right reasons is good but buttering up every time is highly unethical, isn't it?
I personally hate to flatter my bosses unnecessarily, but i do appreciate them on logical ground.
