Hi! friends, I'm totally agree with you all...
As we all are aware about the fact that food is the basic source of energy in life, without having food, we can not respond to the things in are practical and stressful life, ethics have their importance after food.. as with food only we get the power to perform any task in life....

Friends, we cannot say which is important because the priority given to ethics or food declares the personality of a human being.

A person who gives importance to ethics not for food becomes great person eg: gandhiji, harichandra etc., if gandhiji had gave importance to food he did not becomes a leader he simply become a lawyer and does his practice. similarly if Satya Harichandra does not given importance to ethics he did not become poor.

The people who gives importance to ethics when they are happy and gives importance to food when they are in need becomes a common man or ordinary man.

The people who gives importance to food not for the ethics becomes thieves and creates problem to the society .

Hi,Yes both are necessary but not at cost of others life. I agree with shiv that there are naxals who do this same thing. Even other internal terrorist groups who kills others only to serve themselves. This is not done we cannot have food by Hook or crook. The main reason behind it is poverty so, what I feel that government should take corrective measures against them.

Hi, ethics are important but after getting food. Because, without food not up to the ethics even human being can't survive.

Hi ,i believe both are necessary at their places as you can't eat your ethics and vice versa e.g a beggar who want food for his survival cant think of ethics and stop begging just because his ethics don't allow this as no one become beggar from his own choice likewise for a respectful living in society you put your ethics first to have food and other basic necessities.

My point is food is the primary need of all living things in the world. So the first priority should for the food, no one can become a philosopher without having good nutrition in the life...

For sure food come first of all ethics. All creatures are engineered to do almost for survival. People does not hesitate to sell off their own kids for food. So it is unwise to say that ethics come first. There may be few who give priority to ethics than food. Anyway this universe is full of exceptional cases. But here we are discussing about normal peoples. Miss Neha have a very good point but a person can be a patriotic only and only when he is well fed and well educated . For a poor person there is no differance. Naxals are the best examples of this fact. They doesn't bother to kill their own countrymen just for money only. Do you think that naxalism is a war of idealogy? It is just a war of hunger. They poor people even doesn't know what is naxalism is all about. They are simple being targeted by neibour countries, who wants to encash this food fact for distablising india.

Food and etthics are same in one perspective. If ethics are dissolved, survival of a person is useless. If food is not there, survival doesn't exist, beside agreeing the fact food is 1st, ethics are next.

Its true that food comes first , ethics later.

After satisfying the basic necessity of life only one can be ethical.

No doubt in above lines that "FOOD COMES FIRST, ETHICS LATER"
You cant imagine a life without food whereas one can survive without proper shelter and clothing, i agree with vasanth that "In yearly ages like stone age man searched for food first"
Ethics are also important but not more than food in any way.
