Food Comes First, Ethics Later

Food and ethics are inter-related things. If a person is not getting enough food ethics are not going to help him out. But every time for getting food we should not forget the ethical values. There should be limit. Earn for your basic needs and not for comforts.

Thank you.

As we are all known that, we are the most intelligent species in this earth, we should have certain manners to act with others in the society. Which shows that we are all bond with ethic in our day to day life. Moreover food is also mandatory as we know all.

So, what I say is both food and ethic are mandatory to lead a successful life. They are like side two sides of a same coin.

I want to say that Food comes first as compared to ethic because food is the survival human being if they do not eat food they will not survive, if they do not survive then ethic has no meaning.

For ex :- A beggar who have not enough money to eat food, he only pray the god to give me food to survive my life.

Ethic :- Ethic is for rich people who have some rule and regulation in his life. They enough food to survive his life.

IF THERE IS FOOD THEN ETHIC COMES, AND THERE IS NO FOOD THEN THERE IS NO ETHIC.

SO, FOOD COMES FIRST, AS ETHIC LATER.

Food or ethics? If you ask this anyone will say definitely food is necessary for survival but then for being able to be called a human being ethics are as important It would be foolish to ask a man dying of starvation to satisfy his hunger by the values and ethics but at the same time we can't rob someone to meet our needs. There is a certain means to fill our bellies and that's what ethics tell us. If only food was important then why spend so much precious time and money teaching children the way of living life in society. A man devoid of ethics would be no different from animals I guess.

In my opinion food comes and will comes first than ethics. When you don't have the source of survival that is food you would not go for maintaining or system your own status for better, good or kind appearance.

For example in the starting of civilization man's character were surviving for food type but as the civilization developed then the so called religion, government, system comes into the picture.

Thus food comes first and ethics later, but nowadays it also depends upon the individuals as all of you said.

Of course both food and ethics are very very crucial for a healthy society. But if the question is 'WHAT COMES FIRST?', I would just request you to conduct a small social experiment.

Look at that young girl who looks malnourished because she has never had enough to fill her stomach. Her skin is burnt and her feet bruised because she has been begging all day with her younger brother in her arms at the traffic signal you cross everyday. Look at her in the eye and ask her if she cares more about her daddy's work ethics or about the food he manages to bring home that is barely enough for them to survive.

I won't answer this question. Let her do it.

Obviously Food comes first. Ethics are the moral principles which control or influence individuals behavior. All these moral principles were formed gradually to give directions to society, for well-being of society.

Think of first person who came on this planet, first thing he would have search for is food, he had not mind killing animal for food. After that he thought of anything else ex. Forming society and rules etc. If there is no society there will not be any ethics and society first need to feed its people first.

Likewise if government is not able to feed its people, people will obviously go violent.

Criminals mostly are the people who had suffered with poverty, helplessness and could not bear the injustice done by government to them.

Hi, friends we all know that food is one of the basic needs for human survival, in fact not only humans but all the creatures that exist in this world. Without ethics also we can live but it is just like an animal. So both should go hand in hand to live like a human being.

Well, I agree that food comes first and ethics later. Food is the basic need for the living beings to survive. No living being on this great earth doesn't have any ethics. They will search for food and they survive regardless of the way it obtained the food.

But it is import to note that man had became the supreme living being on this great earth because of his enormous intelligence. But the ethics make his existence for billions of years.

"NO FOOD NO SURVIVAL, BUT NO ETHICS NO LONGER SURVIVAL".

We should keep balance between food and ethics as much as we could do but if we are being strict on the topic I personally believe that food should come first because that is basic need. Survival is right of every human being. You can talk about ethics when your stomach is filled.
