Right Or Wrong

What is right or wrong ? Who decides what is right and what is wrong ? Can our actions be objectively classified or is it subjective ? Can we afford to create a world where everybody is either Black or White and we sit and pass judgement on their morality ! Is it feasible ? Isn't it claustrophobic and suffocating and an attempt to curtail the mind which knows no bounds , our ability to learn - experiment with truths .

There is no right or wrong in this world . Barring a miniscule percentage of the people everything one does is circumstantial . We are the way we are because of our upbringing , our circumstances , what we have faced in life or what we will face in future - which is different for everyone . Then how can we justify a common code of conduct ???

All human beings are shades of grey with their own set of faults and weaknesses . But they do have something else too - A conscience . It is this conscience that tells us what is right and what is wrong . It is our own judge ! It forces us to seek redemption at some point in time - when ? cannot be answered - cause time is dimensionless !
