I like how “Thomas Aquinas” appears in the title as an ethical theory lol. I wouldn’t disagree though.

So, what's the difference between ethics and morality?

[@ElliotPolskyPhilosophy]

The way we usually use the words ethics and morality, these words are basically synonymous. But technically ethics is the first branch of moral philosophy. Moral philosophy concerns the order of human action to happiness. Ethics is the part of moral philosophy that deals with individual human actions, as opposed to actions belonging to a family or whole civil society.
