Morals Are Created

Earlier in the year I read "The Lowest Animal" and as we dive deeper into the Inner Monsters unit, the quote I keep recalling is this one regarding morals

He is the only animal that has it. It is the secret of his degradation. It is the qualitywhich enables him to do wrong. It has no other office. It is incapable of performing any other function. It could never have been intended to perform any other. Without it, man could do no wrong...

I believe that the concepts of good and evil are just societal constructs. We're simply being in our everyday lives and in the actions we do, yet assign unneeded adjectives to describe our motives, our actions, and our thoughts. The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde shows how it is a man made thing, with humans good and evil morals are created within our minds, but Jekyll creates a tangible potion. His search and experiments to separate good and bad doesn't show that humans are inherently good OR evil, but that we are inherently curious, we desire to form concrete definition and proof for things that may not be explainable.
