The very idea of such ‘perfection’ is to my mind the doorway to insanity and the immoral. — I like sushi

Can you explain what you meant by this?

we invest time into people and understand they’re invaluable ‘resources’. — I like sushi

For a eusocial species like us, endowed with empathy & habits of care, the suffering of others, all things being equal, suffices more often than not as the "external motivator" of our moral agency. — 180 Proof

Then if I live in a group or culture where certain actions are considered moral and I don't really, deep down want to do them, motivations could include

guilt
shame
egotism - wanting to be seen a certain way.
fear
strategic motives
self-protection
conflicr avoidance
sneakiness
secret goals — Coben

The guy on the youtube video was basically saying, that morality is not one, but consists of two parts, and they have different attributes, which he describes, but similar reward/ punishment systems, both systems having rewards/ punishment coming from within, not from the outside world. — god must be atheist

I think these quotes that I have taken from the thread so far beautifully answer the question I am trying to pose. I'm sorry if the segments I took out might allow for some conclusions that are a result of the quotes taken out of context.

@I like sushi, when you asked if I meant something different I thing @Pfhorrest was able to put my thoughts into words when he/she was talking about extrinsic reasons to be moral. The reason the question came about was because in my University class we were talking about moral theories and those who subscribe to theories involving God(s) or some form of afterlife have the external motivator of preparing for a judgment and I was trying to discover if moral theories that did not involve those beliefs (God(s) or afterlife) had a comparable external motivator to choose to be moral.
